Hey everyone, Currently I'm trying to start a jetpack compose project with android but I want the gradle to be in kotlin instead of groovy because I'm more comfortable with it. I tried to follow a guide but sadly after it gives me error on in the app build.gradle.kts. Error in thread.

What is the line of your app\build.gradle.kts line 7?

[maarten ha]

The error just sends it to the android component

[Luke]

In the guide, and my personal project, the compile SDK version is declared like this: compileSdkVersion(version)

[Luke]

But I think this has been deprecated in favor of compileSdk = version

[maarten ha]

compileSdk = version
works. Thank you @Luke, on to the next errors 🤣
