What are the recommended cleanup steps when using CameraX with jetpack compose if the camera screen is not the only screen in my application?
So when I navigate from some screen to a screen using the camera where should the cameraProvider/PreviewView/etc... be initialized and how should I clean everything up when leaving the camera screen

i do it in a viewmodel and then use some viewmodel.dispose/clear functionality.
This could either be called by the component that navigations or you can make an Disposable Effect that calls this in onCidpose

Simply use LocalLifecycleOwner.current
with bindToLifecycle(). Navigation library provides a LifecycleOwner which is destroyed when you navigate away.
