Hi all 👋,
Is there any difference between using map or forEach in a Composable ?

E.g

@Composable
fun TextList(strings: List<String>) {
  strings.map {
    Text(it)
  }
}

vs

@Composable
fun TextList(strings: List<String>) {
  strings.forEach {
    Text(it)
  }
}

Map is strictly worse

[jw]

It conveys the wrong intent, but also allocates a new list every time it's invoked

Use fastForEach if public in compose lib
