kotlinlang

Hi - in a recent flutter project I have used functionality as like in this package: <https://pub.dev/packages/app_tutorial>

So - basically it is an overlay and a custom painter drawing a “hole” in that overlay. In other words: the typical “in-app tutorial” stuff. Is there something similar for compose?

I mean - I tried to find something in the web. But guess what happens if you search for “kotlin compose tutorial” :smile:

Info on the linked package: basically that stuff works like
a) add an overlay across the complete screen
b) get the coordinates (e.g. from a given component or a component that can be found in the tree via its identifier) to draw a shape there in order to reveal the spot behind the overlay

Would one of those help?

Hell, yeah! I like the first one, as it integrates through modifier… so - `showcase` would have been the perfect term then to search for…

Thanks a lot!

I had archived those under the term „feature discovery“. :laughing:
