I was looking to add animations to the color changes in the

OutlinedTextField

by just basically copy pasting the source and

animateColorAsState

everything I see, but one thing made me think, if this is a good idea Why does the

TextFieldColors

return

State<Color>

?

val textColor = textStyle.color.takeOrElse {
   colors.textColor(enabled).value
}

@Stable
interface TextFieldColors {
    @Composable
    fun textColor(enabled: Boolean): State<Color>

why not simply

Color

?

Probably so color changes can be consumed without recomposing

So.. is it a bad idea to add the animateColorAsState? I'm confused

So.. is it a bad idea to add the animateColorAsState

animateColorAsState

also returns

State<Color>

? What do you think is a bad idea here?
