04/27/2020, 1:51 PMHi! We're over in #compose if you'd like to join us there. If you mean to ask whether compose state is retained across activity recreation, there are the savedInstanceState functions but the non-parcelable variants aren't there yet. They'll be coming before long, but no immediate ETA. AAC ViewModel will work just fine until then.

04/27/2020, 5:11 PMThe savedInstanceState functions are already there in compose, those handle cold process restart cases. The activity recreation in a live process case is the intermediate case that compose doesn't have API for yet.
