Preference is an Android Kotlin library which builds upon Jetpack Preference and Material Components.
You can use it in your own Android project by adding it to your depenencies:
dependencies {
implementation "com.loamen.android:preference:1.0.0"
}
Make sure your preference fragments are derived from preference.PreferenceFragmentBase.
This will notably take care of using a compatible preferenceTheme if none was specified in your theme styles. Failing to do so or using an incompatible preferenceTheme can lead to crashes.
You can define your own preferenceTheme attribute in your theme styles. Like so:
<item name="preferenceTheme">@style/PreferenceThemeOverlay.Loamen.Custom</item>
Run and explore the demo application and code documentation for more information.
