Welcome to the LinkPreview wiki!

LinkPreview is a View designed for showing a simple clickable preview of any link. These links can be passed directly, or a block of text can be sent and the library will parse that text for links automatically. If no links are found then the view will simply set its visibility to GONE. This provides for a great experience.

LinkPreview has a very simple to use API. You can let it do all the work for you, or you can override all of its callbacks to introduce your own custom behavior. LinkPreview also stores a local cache of all images that are found, so there are no redundant image calculations. This means one view can fit many different situations throughout your project!

YES! LinkPreview is actively used in my own apps so it will certainly be updated frequently. If you have any ideas of your own that could make it better, create an issue or submit a pull request and I will check it out!
