Just want to say thanks for moving the compose compiler into kotlin (2.0.0-RC1), configuring the compiler with a typed API is just so much better ! (plus javadoc and code completion!)

fun Project.ComposeConvention() {
  pluginManager.withPlugin("org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.compose") {
    configure<ComposeCompilerGradlePluginExtension> {
      val reporting = the<ReportingExtension>()
      val reportsEnabled = providers.gradleProperty("compose.enableReports")
      val reportsDir = reporting.baseDirectory.dir("compose").filter { reportsEnabled.orNull == "true" }
      reportsDestination = reportsDir
      metricsDestination = reportsDir
      enableIntrinsicRemember = true
      enableExperimentalStrongSkippingMode = true
      stabilityConfigurationFile = rootProject.file("compose-stability-config.txt")
    }
    dependencies {
      "implementation"(libs.jetbrains.compose.runtime)
    }
  }
}

💚

It's also usable for non-Compose UI-based compositions like Molecule, Mosaic, and Redwood unlike the existing JB one. So nice.

[efemoney]

Yup exactly! I really love it!

I’m also happy to not need to work with CommonExtension<*, *, *, *, *, *> again 😄

Btw is this going to be moved into KGP or stay in its own artifact?

[tapchicoma]

for now - own artifact. We have an ongoing discussion about provide more unified approach in regards KGP and Kotlin official compiler plugins, but no decision so far.

It's worth noting that there are a few commits that need to go in before the final 2.0.0 build (related to bugs in multiplatform and incremental compilation) but yeah, huge thanks to @tapchicoma and @nk and @Marina Shishkina and everyone else who helped make this happen! This is going to be a huge improvement for all users of Compose and should go a long way to solving the kotlin-compose compatibility matrix complexities.

[jim]

I'm really excited for this change in Kotlin!

oh nice. so no more having to remember to specify a specific compose compiler version?
