Where is a good place to start if I wanted to implement a pull to refresh feature instead of the refresh button?

I found "SwipeRefreshLayout" (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/widget/SwipeRefreshLayout.html) but wanted to know if there is something like ButterKnife or OkHttp I should be using.

Have you tried this: http://www.androidhive.info/2015/05/android-swipe-down-to-refresh-listview-tutorial/ ^its pretty popular and I know many people who have used it.
