I'm a bit confused about the new modifier mechanism. For example if I create my own LayoutModifierNode how can I get a Node? Do I just extend Node?

Even I’m not sure completely regarding the implementation. I guess we have to wait for an actual implementation by the Android team like they’re currently working on one

True, all I know is that those articles about modifier under the hood are gonna be a history. 😂

Yes Modifier.Node is a class you subclass, and then your subclass can implement whichever node interfaces you need & delegate to other nodes.
