Answer 1

I wrote a simple and reusable one:

class ViewBindingVH private constructor(val binding: ViewBinding) :
    RecyclerView.ViewHolder(binding.root) {
    
    companion object {
        inline fun createVH(
            parent: ViewGroup,
            crossinline block: (inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup, attach: Boolean) -> ViewBinding
        ) = ViewBindingVH(block(LayoutInflater.from(parent.context), parent, false))
    }
}


class CardAdapter : RecyclerView.Adapter() {
    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ViewBindingVH {
        return ViewBindingVH.createVH(parent, CardBinding::inflate)
    }

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ViewBindingVH, position: Int) {
        (holder.binding as CardBinding).apply {
            //bind model to view
            title.text = "some text"
            descripiton.text = "some text"
        }
    }

}
