Hi everyone,
I want to know that the UI which is designed using jetpack compose will be compatible on IOS as well? for e.g navigation drawer in compose will run smoothly on IOS ?
basically I need to design a UI which has a navigation drawer

[Mofe Ejegi]

I believe you’re referring to Compose Multiplatform. Yeah, if you properly design a nav drawer UI in Compose, it should be smooth on both platforms.

what about fragments in KMP?

[McEna]

Fragments are a (very bad) android API. They don't exist in KMP.

[McEna]

You can use them in the android source set, of course. KMP isn't hard wired to multiplatform compose.

@McEna then what is the best way to navigate between views pointing out to the navigation item click event

[McEna]

there's a bunch of navigation libraries already. Some of them are displayed here: Navigation and routing | Kotlin Multiplatform Development Documentation (jetbrains.com)

[Jeff Lockhart]

You might check out PreCompose, which has a similar API to Android's Jetpack Navigation. Or try another navigation library, which supports KMP.

[McEna]

I remember having read Jetpack Navigation was getting multiplatform support, but I can't find the announcement.
