It has been fun migrating @typinghero to Jetpack Compose.

I took the time to redesign the app while migrating, and I'm quite happy with the result.

The Material 3 Expressive updates conveniently landed not too long ago, and I managed to make use of it.

I know the Floating Toolbar is not recommended to be used when there's a Navigation Bar.

But I will ignore that recommendation because having it there is very useful in the context of reachability.

It's a work in progress.

There are several screens left to be migrated, and I'll take my time to move slow and improve things.

Deleting a bunch of files as part of migrating @typinghero to Jetpack Compose.

And I'm not done yet!

A lot of us having been building apps with #JetpackCompose for a few years now, but do you know you can do a lot more than building UI? Join us this Wednesday at @cbase to learn from @ashdavies, on managing state, business logic, and more with Compose Multiplatform #CMP!

Published "Exploring PausableComposition internals in Jetpack Compose" . You might have heard that the latest version of #Jetpack #Compose has improved performance significantly. You know the reason? There's a usage of new under the hood API - `PausableComposition`. Know how it works under the hood for making buttery smooth experience in compose

Tip: any Swift code in SKIP blocks can interact directly with Kotlin, including #JetpackCompose. We transparently transpile SKIP code to Kotlin, then bridge it back to your native Swift. Here a user integrates custom Compose into his #SwiftUI using a ComposeView #SwiftForAndroid

Doing Compose course by @jorge outside on the patio. Can't complain.

Coming from Android and Jetpack Compose, I am having a seriously hard time figuring out navigation on iOS. I don't think `NavigationStack` & `NavigationLink` like me. All I want is make a button that opens a new screen. #Android #iOS #BuildInPublic #JetpackCompose #SwiftUI

Took up a weekend project to port my #JetpackCompose app to the newly announced Nav3 (https://goo.gle/nav3). I was pretty optimistic going in but the results completely blew my mind. The new APIs are significantly easier to use, animations work great, the core backstack primitives are fully in your control and the library gets out of your way. Adaptive support was so ridiculously simple that I can't imagine ever going back.

Hey, I just sent out jetc.dev Newsletter Issue #264! DI in previews! @navczydev on LinkAnnotation! Composable visibility! Drag and drop! And... do choosy developers *still* choose GIF?!? https://jetc.dev/issues/264 #JetpackCompose #AndroidDev

I know it's Saturday, but does anyone in the #AndroidDev community know how to animate from ExtendedFAB to FAB when scrolling like it does on the left?

This is it in a compose-sample project and for the life of me I can't find the code where this is in the repo of it to see.

My app (Right) just jitters from ExtendedFAB to FAB.

Thanks in advance!

Jetpack Compose 1.8.0 was released with the 2025.04.01 Compose BOM!

Ha! Today, I finally understood how to: a) use WorkManager and Worker for stuff, b) use hilt to inject dependencies into said Worker, and c) use an Observer to follow the work and update the UI. Felt good!
