I’m pretty excited about https://github.com/bumble-tech/appyx/pull/539. Seems like a rather small thing, but it unlocks a lot more visual power, e.g. along the lines of shared element transitions. Regardless, animating

Alignment

values feels pretty nice, and it also makes positions independent of screen space. No more

DpOffset

hackery.

The 2.0 migration guide has been updated: https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/2.x/migrationguide/

Worth mentioning: https://github.com/bumble-tech/appyx/pull/538 by @Andrei Kovalev added a way to observe animated properties further down in the composition. An interactive demo can be found at the bottom of this page, where position and rotation values are displayed: https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/interactions/uirepresentation/#observing-motionproperty-in-children-ui In real life you will probably not display the values directly but use them for custom conditions. In the attached (very barebone) video example I’m reading the rotation value to decide whether to show a “front” or a “back” side, i.e. different composables. I’ll create a nicer example later.

Appyx 2.0 transitions + gestures + multiplatform use-cases at Droidcon Berlin: https://www.droidcon.com/2023/07/31/gesture-driven-multiplatform-transitions-with-appyx/

👋 Hey team, I'm looking into alternatives to compose navigation. The samples look great visually. Just watched this talk - https://www.droidcon.com/2022/11/15/model-driven-navigation-with-appyx-from-zero-to-hero/ QQ: 1. I rely on

savedStateHandle

to retrieve data within a ViewModel. What is the appyx way to do it? 2. How do I scope VMs to a certain node path?

#557 added a massive documentation update to Appyx Navigation. You can check the PR for a list of changes, and can see it live here: https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/navigation/

If I have a bunch of nested nodes, to track the backstack do I need to store all of the InteractionTargets of all nested child nodes in the root node? or if I instantiate a different BackStack for each ParentNode, does the backstack object keep track of the whole stack in the BuildContext?

With the release of https://github.com/bumble-tech/appyx/releases/tag/2.0.0-alpha03 yesterday, Appyx Navigation is now multiplatform too! Big thanks to @Jez whose work made it possible. Some additional info in the docs: https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/navigation/multiplatform/ Also updated: • https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/releases/downloads/ • https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/navigation/quick-start/

As a follow-up, we’ll improve our multiplatform sample apps to provide some great examples of Appyx’s capabilities in navigation and transitions. Meanwhile you can check out the sandbox app with different Appyx component visualisations: •

iOS is also on the way.

Is it possible to track multiple backstacks? Scenario: I have a bottom bar with 4 links. I go to link A, click through a bunch of nodes, then click link B. If I click link A again, I want to go back to the last node I was on. Same for the last node of link B.

Is there any estimate on how long will it take to add Compose Multiplatform for iOS support? I did not see any information regarding that in the docs.

Hey Appyx team great work on this amazing navigation library and thank you for sharing!

We have seen a difference in the behavior with the interaction with parent views while a child is attached. Our use case in our app is: We show a Google Maps on the background the whole time and we have our own UI on top of it. Users can interact with our UI and also with the map on the background. With 1.3.0 this was the behavior by default but bumping to 2.0.0-alpha04 we see the parent view stops getting any interaction (see video attached).

Hey! I am looking for a somewhat realistic example on how to structure an app with scopes etc. Is there any resource you could point me to? Thanks!

This week we released Appyx 2.0.0-alpha05 with a whole bunch of important fixes for animations & desktop: https://bumble-tech.github.io/appyx/releases/changelog/#200-alpha05… Coming soon: Appyx Navigation for iOS, Material design components support, and more!
