RecyclerViewAdapter in the demo now extends from RecyclerSwipeAdapter from the library. This greatly simplifies things for the users. They still must implement their own ViewHolder and extend from the abstract one inside the SwipeAdapter. See the demo for recyclerview for a better understanding of how it works.
Also increased the build and compile versions to 21. Added elevation to the top view for 5.0 devices. See the recyclerview on a device running android 5.0+ to see the difference from the edge.
This can be replicated with a shadow drawable gradient with lower devices. Maybe someone else can add this feature.
