+# DrawingView
+A simple view to draw on supporting:
+- undo, redo, eraser, clear
+- set brush color and size
+- set callback listeners for drawing and canvas state changes
+
+<br/>
+Simply create view in your code or in xml and you're good to go.
+<br/>
+
+## Nice! How do I get started?
+Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:
+``` gradle
+allprojects {
+  repositories {
+    ...
+    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+And make sure this is in your app build.gradle
+``` gradle
+dependencies {
+  implementation 'com.github.mvojtkovszky:DrawingView:1.0.0'
+}
+```
