Jetpack Compose is probably the most popular topic in Android development these days. Most people believe creating views with Compose is a piece of cake compared to the old XML. As we try to get a piece of this delicious cake, we all face the consequences of consuming sugar! Fortunately, it can’t give you diabetes, but migrating to Compose can easily become a bottleneck in your project if it’s not managed properly.
Navigating between composable screens was one of the first challenges that we encountered. Saying goodbye to Jetpack’s Navigation Component and using the error-prone Compose Navigation was making our code messy and unstable.
In this talk, I will take you through the challenges we faced with Compose Navigation, how we integrated it into our big old project, and how we managed the risk of using a new technology.
