Hi, i am trying to use

coroutines

using

'androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-extensions:2.2.0-alpha01'

which is latest version but i'm unable to get

viewLifecycleOwner.lifecycleScope.launch {}//here lifecycleScope is not available

, what i'm missing ?

the right package for this is

androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime-ktx:2.2.0-alpha01

so can i remove 'extensions' and just keep 'runtime' and what is diffrence between both packages?

extensions it’s the package for LiveData/ViewModel which they extend the lifecycle objects (LifecycleOwner/Observer)

ok thanks for helping 👍

in any case you can read more here https://developer.android.com/kotlin/ktx
