This is a presentation for the Kotlin User Group Munich meetup. This repository adds a few basic examples to demonstrate how Jetpack Compose works.

The project is based on the very helpful try-compose repository by Mikhail Levchenko.

This repository was made to provide a quick dive into what Jetpack Compose feels like. No need to checkout and AOSP and build everything by yourself, main job is done for you.

Unfortunately, Jetpack Compose is not published anywhere yet. This repo helps urgent minds to play with Compose by providing all dependencies prebuilt.

Download zipped prebuilts from the latest release and unpack it to project root replacing all the files

Compose needs custom plugins to operate. To use it, you can install custom version of Android Studio provided by wrapper script slightly modified to match this repo files structure. Just launch

./studiow

It will download Android Studio from google servers and prompt you to accept license. Type Y to proceed. After installing script will open Android Studio within the repo folder to play with.

If you want to use the most recent Jetpack Compose dependencies and can't wait for me to recompile and publish new release, but have already established project based on this template, you can build Jetpack Compose by yourself and then add the following line to your local.properties file

androidx.home="path/to/your/androidx/checkout"

Android Team created a #compose channel on Kotlin's Slack to collect feedback from community. Be sure to check it out if you have anything to ask.
