What’s the latest state of (shared) navigation for KMM? Anyone very happy with anything else then Decompose?

Can it be used with non-compose UI though?

Oh, you mean a navigation without ui. OK.

We have something in our library (iOS/Android) that supports Compose, XML, UIKit and SwiftUI https://github.com/splendo/kaluga/tree/develop/architecture

See https://github.com/splendo/kaluga/tree/develop/architecture-compose for compose support and https://github.com/splendo/kaluga-swiftui for SwiftUI

Worth remembering that navigation is management of presentation and view state. A library may be a big help, if you find one that aligns with your Apps opinions, but you don't have to use a library to do it, and one may even hold you back if you lately encounter a use case that your chosen library doesn't support. Consider what choosing 'no library' would mean, as one of your options when comparing 😊

For a simpler option that’s purely focused on Routing, I recently released Ballast Navigation

I’ll also double-up on Chris’s point: you definitely don’t need a routing library, and in my experience I’ve found myself fighting the navigation libraries I’ve tried more than I’d like. You can get quite far with something like enums or sealed classes and a big

statement, especially in Compose using

AnimatedContent

for basic page transitions. And in fact, this is the basic idea I went with when building Ballast Navigation, basically a slightly more intelligent giant
