and is it recommended to use both fragments and composables within the same Android app?

[Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD]]

I wouldn’t do this unless in a new app you’re using some library that requires fragments. Otherwise it’s just unnecessary complexity

[Stylianos Gakis]

Here’s the only one case where I can imagine someone wanting to do that:
• You are using androidx navigation
• You want type-safe navigation between your screens
• You do not want to use third-party solutions like this, nor do you want to wire everything up together yourself by following the docs
• You do want to use the existing “navigation-safe-args-gradle-plugin” gradle plugin as explained here.
If someone fulfills all of the above, this would be the last legit reason I can imagine someone having to going that hybrid approach still.

If youre talking about a new app, I would never use Fragments ever again. But if having an app already using Fragments, there is not an issue mixing them. However I recommend having strategy of migrate away from Fragments, if you intend to use Compose.
Nothing wrong with Fragments itself, just that I dont see any reasons of using them anymore.
