Both JavaFX and Swing has KeyEvent as well.

Both of those are tied to the JVM and are not multiplatform, though.

True, but Compose as it's own channel, doesn't it?

Yep. That's why I suggested they go there. Because of JetBrains' marketing of it as "Compose _multiplatform_", though, many come here instead

The problem is a lot of Compose resources aren't available to Multiplatform, so sometimes the suggested solutions are useless.

I looked at compose to see if it was a potential candidate to use for the UI for my application (interactive programming language/calculator with excel-like features. Compose looked to be about a decade away from being a viable use case for me, which was very sad. I really wanted something truly multiplatform.
