Hi everyone, what is the best approach to create the bottom navigation bar in KMP?

KMP is not UI framework. You probably want #CJLTWPH7S

thanks @Filip Wiesner can you explain what this channel is about?
f
I think the official docs will explain it better than me. Check out channel info

Hi @Filip Wiesner after checking #CJLTWPH7S I’m still confused. I still see on this channel people are asking similar things, like this thread: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C3PQML5NU/p1730019546492249

Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) is a way to compile Kotlin code for different platforms, but that doesn't necessarily mean it has to be UI code. It can be any code, like backend or some other script. So this channel is about discussing running Kotlin code on different platforms. #CJLTWPH7S is a channel for discussing the UI framework Compose specifically. So if you have questions about Compose, you should ask in channel #CJLTWPH7S And "other people are doing it" is not an argument. It's still wrong.

Thanks @Filip Wiesner “It can be any code”, does this mean it includes UI code?
I think my question was not clear, it was about the bottom navigation bar for multiplatform (except non-UI like backend)
I just want to make sure I post the questions at the right place, I’m not trying to argument by any means

does this mean it includes UI code
Yes, but if you check the channel description, it specifically mentions code compilation. And even if it didn't, you would want to use the channel that is the most relevant to your issue, which in this case is #CJLTWPH7S
I think my question was not clear
It was but "compose multiplatform" != "kotlin multiplatform". Compose is a UI framework by Google, and Kotlin is the language by JetBrains.
