I want to build a grid like the one in Pinterest app on Android.
I started extending an AdapterView
but I cannot make many things working
I have solved this by copying and updating Android's StaggeredGridView. https://github.com/maurycyw/StaggeredGridView . Seems to work great for creating the effect you are looking for. Before this I went down the rabbit hole of copying Android's source to a separate library (which I got working) until I saw the now experimental StaggeredGridView. It is much simpler than my old "BrickView" library project so I replaced it.
