What it does

InflationInject simplifies the process of injecting views during XML layout inflation in Kotlin, making it easier to manage complex user interfaces.

When to use it

•When you need to construct complex views with many dependencies
•When you want to reduce boilerplate code in your Android app's UI components
•When you need to improve the testability of your Android app's UI logic

Ready-to-paste prompt

Annotate your custom view with @InflationInject and add it to your layout XML: <com.example.YourView android:id="@+id/your_view" ... />

Heads up: Make sure to use the correct version of the Kotlin compiler and Android Gradle plugin to avoid compatibility issues with InflationInject
