Is Material Design 3 available for compose for desktop? I added the dependency to my build.gradle.kts and had a successful sync, but still get components from M2 instead of M3

e.g. DropdownMenu, DropdownMenuItem

Aha, found it. I was using the wrong group and artifact IDs. Instead of androidx.compose.material3:material3 I needed org.jetbrains.compose.material3:material3-desktop

[Adam Brown]

you should use the built in I think rather than specifying it like a normal dependency

[Adam Brown]

something like: https://github.com/Wavesonics/hammer-editor/blob/master/composeUi/build.gradle.kts#L43

Oh whoa... I've never seen this way of declaring dependencies. Do you have a link handy w.r.t. documentation? Is this specific to multiplatform projects? Just compose multiplatform?

[Adam Brown]

ya its just for compose multiplatform afaik

[Ryan Smith]

Thanks! I switched over to doing it this way, much easier and clearer to read.
