Displaying a list of checkable images inside Android fragment/view

New to Android (Java) development and I have a fragment (WidgetFragment) that is backed by a binding to a widget.xml file.

WidgetFragment:

public class WidgetFragment extends Fragment {
    private WidgetBinding binding;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle bundle) {
        binding = WigetBinding.inflate(inflater, container, false);
        return binding.getRoot();
}

    public void onViewCreated(@NonNull View view, Bundle bundle) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, bundle);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDestroyiew() {
        super.onDestroyView();
        binding = null;
    }
}

widget.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".WidgetFragment">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textview_second"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/button_second"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button_second"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/previous"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/textview_second" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

I also have just created a List<MediaFileModel>, where MediaFileModel looks like:

public class MediaFileModel {

  private Bitmap thumbnail;
  private String absPath;

  // ctor, getters and setters omitted for brevity
  
}

I would now like to "inject" that List<MediaFileModel> into my WidgetFragment (both the XML view layer as well as in the WidgetFragment java code) so that:

• I get a visual list representing the List<MediaFileModel>; and
• each list element represents an individual MediaFileModel instance; and
• each list element (representing a different MediaFileModel displays a checkbox with a label; the label is the thumbnail : Bitmap of the MediaFileModel

So essentially, by injecting this List<MediaFileModel> the end user will see a list of thumbnails, each with a checkbox next to them. How do I inject this list and get the desired "list of checkable thumbnails" effect?
