<@UHAJKUSTU> Since sample apps use Reaktive, I don’t fully understand what is the recommended approach for passing the output of the component. For example if I specify the component this way:

I have to call `emit` from a coroutine context/suspend function. Which probably is not desired. On the other hand I can replace all outputs with lambda-parameters, which can look heavy with a lot of them.

Or should I use a single lambda with only `Output` parameter?

You can call `tryEmit` instead, which doesn't require a coroutine context.

In this case you can either pass `output: (Output) -&gt; Unit`, or separate callbacks per output kind.

I would use separate callbacks personally.

Could you please advise what are the benefits of using Flow in this case instead of regular callback-lambdas? In what case it could be useful?

In the sample `Consumer` is used. I suppose it should make some sense.

You can pass `Flow` to a component to allow it receiving events (inputs), or pass `StateFlow` for states. You can pass a callback (or a number of callbacks) for outputs.

Yes, because Reaktive has `Consumer` type. A normal callback could be used instead.

Just use normal callbacks as it's a general practice.

Yeah, I tried to mimic the Reactive sample first and then asked myself what are the benefits and was not able to figure out some. Thank you for advise!
