Hello guys, I am new in compose and I got the error below when i tried to run my compose project the first time.


Please, how do I resolve the error?

Execution failed for task ':app:compileDebugKotlin'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:kotlin-extension'.
   > Could not find androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.3.0-alpha02.

This is a regular Gradle issue, not exactly specific to Compose. Essentially, you’ve asked Gradle (somewhere) to look for a library/artifact called androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.3.0-alpha02 and Gradle can’t find that (because compiler:1.3.0-alpha02 doesn’t exist).

Most of the Compose libraries have a 1.3.0-alpha02 release, but the compiler is a bit of a special case, and doesn’t always have matching versions like the rest of the Compose libraries. The other libraries like foundation, material or runtime generally share the same version name (i.e. 1.3.0-alpha02).

At the moment, the most recent version of androidx.compose.compiler:compiler is 1.3.0-rc01, so if you change your Gradle declaration to use 1.3.0-rc01 for that artifact, things should start to work again.

You can have a peak into the Google Maven Repository and look at the available versions here:
Compiler: https://maven.google.com/web/index.html#androidx.compose.compiler:compiler
Foundation: https://maven.google.com/web/index.html#androidx.compose.foundation:foundation
Runtime: https://maven.google.com/web/index.html#androidx.compose.runtime:runtime
