https://kotlinlang.org/docs/tutorials/android-plugin.html i am trying view binding in a fragment and it doesnt seem to work the way it does for an activity

Is it crashing? And if so, are you calling it in on create view vs on view created? Fragments in general adhere to a different lifecycle, so you'll need to make sure you use the views when they are available

ya im calling it in onviewcreated

Try building the app? Sometimes if there are changes you need to build for the synthetic mappings to be generated
