JCenter migration

[npace]

Hello,

As you may be aware, Bintray and JCenter are being sunset on May 1st 2021 (announcement).

Are there any plans to migrate this library to Maven Central before JCenter goes offline?

Thanks!

I'm actually not sure if we're investing the effort to do that since the library is kinda deprecated since the functionality is included in the official libraries now. For legacy users jitpack will probably be good-enough?

Wow, thanks for the quick reply!

Jitpack would be good for sure. I already use it for some other dependencies.

BTW since you said that this library is basically deprecated, do you have any alternative libraries in mind?
Either way, my use case is in some legacy code so I can just keep using this one for the foreseeable future...

The alternative is the actual material components library from Google which accepted the main part of this library as a patch: material-components/material-components-android#413

Hmm, it looks like there's no point in not using the material components version. I guess that makes migrating this library redundant. Thanks again!
