So, I know there is the intent that the compose compiler will no longer need to directly line up with the version of compose you are using in your code. Does anyone know of the 1.3.0 compiler makes that possible or not? We’re in the process of getting ready to update our kotlin to 1.7 and compose to 1.2, and i want to be able to decide if we should be using kotlin 1.7.0 (compose compiler 1.2.0) or kotlin 1.7.10 (compose compiler 1.3.0)

It has already been the case since approximately Compose 1.0 - it just wasn't obvious, which is part of the reason we changed the compiler versioning number scheme and wrote the blog post.

Short answer: yes, you can freely use the newer compose compiler with the older compose versions.
