Based on the RepoPilot analysis, neither repository is recommended for a new project.
forezp/springcloudlearning carries a AVOID verdict — it is:
- Stale: Last commit was 5 years ago
- Unlicensed: No license information provided
This is a learning/tutorial repository, not a production library. It's designed to teach Spring Cloud concepts through examples, not to be a dependency in your project.
jakewharton/viewpagerindicator is a UI library for Android ViewPager indicators, but:
- The repository data shows it's quite mature (copyright 2011–2012) and likely not actively maintained
- It depends on Android Support Library, which has been superseded by AndroidX
- It's specific to Android development only
Recommendations:
-
If you need Spring Cloud learning materials: Use forezp/springcloudlearning as a reference only, but check official Spring Cloud documentation and recent tutorials for current best practices (5 years is a long time in that ecosystem).
-
If you need Android ViewPager indicators: Look for modern AndroidX-compatible alternatives rather than this 2011–2012-era library.
-
For production projects: Depend on actively maintained, licensed libraries with recent commits.

- Are you looking for a learning resource or production dependency?
- What specific Spring Cloud features do you need?
