A small and simple, yet fully fledged and customizable navigation library for Jetpack Compose:

• Full type-safety
• Built-in state restoration
• Nested navigation with independent backstacks
• Own Lifecycle, ViewModelStore and SavedStateRegistry for every backstack entry
• Animated transitions
• Dialog and bottom sheet navigation
• Scopes for easier ViewModel sharing
• No builders, no obligatory superclasses for your composables

Add a single dependency to your project:

implementation("dev.olshevski.navigation:reimagined:1.5.0")

Define a set of destinations. It is convenient to use a sealed class for this:

sealed class Destination : Parcelable {

    @Parcelize
    data object First : Destination()

    @Parcelize
    data class Second(val id: Int) : Destination()

    @Parcelize
    data class Third(val text: String) : Destination()

}

Create a composable with NavController, NavBackHandler and NavHost:

@Composable
fun NavHostScreen() {
    val navController = rememberNavController<Destination>(
        startDestination = Destination.First
    )

    NavBackHandler(navController)

    NavHost(navController) { destination ->
        when (destination) {
            is Destination.First -> Column {
                Text("First destination")
                Button(onClick = {
                    navController.navigate(Destination.Second(id = 42))
                }) {
                    Text("Open Second destination")
                }
            }

            is Destination.Second -> Column {
                Text("Second destination: ${destination.id}")
                Button(onClick = {
                    navController.navigate(Destination.Third(text = "Hello"))
                }) {
                    Text("Open Third destination")
                }
            }

            is Destination.Third -> {
                Text("Third destination: ${destination.text}")
            }
        }
    }
}

As you can see, NavController is used for switching between destinations, NavBackHandler handles back presses and NavHost provides a composable corresponding to the last destination in the backstack. As simple as that.

Just replace NavHost with AnimatedNavHost. The default transition between destinations is a simple crossfade, but you can customize each transition with the transitionSpec parameter:

AnimatedNavHost(
    controller = navController,
    transitionSpec = { action, _, _ ->
        val direction = if (action == NavAction.Pop) {
            AnimatedContentTransitionScope.SlideDirection.End
        } else {
            AnimatedContentTransitionScope.SlideDirection.Start
        }
        slideIntoContainer(direction) togetherWith slideOutOfContainer(direction)
    }
) { destination ->
    // ...
}

Full documentation is available here.

Library-specific hiltViewModel() implementation:

implementation("dev.olshevski.navigation:reimagined-hilt:<latest-version>")

BottomSheetNavHost implementation:

// if you are using Material
implementation("dev.olshevski.navigation:reimagined-material:<latest-version>")

// if you are using Material 3
implementation("dev.olshevski.navigation:reimagined-material3:<latest-version>")

Explore the sample. It demonstrates:

• passing values and returning results
• animated transitions
• dialog and bottom sheet navigation
• nested navigation
• BottomNavigation integration
• entry-scoped and shared ViewModels
• hoisting of NavController to the ViewModel layer
• deeplinks

I've been thinking about Android app architecture and navigation in particular for the longest time. After being introduced to Compose I could finally create the navigation structure that satisfies all my needs perfectly.

I hope it can help you as well.
