So it is possible/simpler to build child views using the standard Android's Adapter pattern.

This is what I use right now:

FlowLayout newsFlow = views.find(view, R.id.flow_news);
int count = adapter.getCount();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
    newsFlow.addView(adapter.getView(i, null, newsFlow));
}

But obviously this logic belongs in the flow layout, not the activity or fragment that's using it. There are also other nuances that'll be needed such as auto-updating when the backing store gets updated with new items.

+1 for this

Please add adapter feature.

That would be neat. I imagine that would not be easy, but it would be cool. I did something similar.

Sorry, I have tried to understand how adapters should work inside the layout but failed. Can somebody create a pull request for this issue (at least for horizontal view without gravity etc, as an example so I can extend it and add to this project).

Now with recycling view setAdapter can be used.
