General

With simplicity in mind, the Alerter employs the builder pattern to facilitate easy integration into any app. A customisable Alert view is dynamically added to the Decor View of the Window, overlaying all content.

    implementation 'com.tapadoo.android:alerter:4.0.2'
}

Kotlin

Version 3.0.0 and above requires Kotlin

Alerter.create(this@DemoActivity)
       .setTitle("Alert Title")

Or from a Fragment -

Alerter.create(activity)
       .setTitle("Alert Title")
       .setText("Alert text...")
