do i need the `androidx.activity:activity-compose`...

# compose

[Alexander Suraphel]

do i need the androidx.activity:activity-compose dependency if I have one activity application? What is the dependency for?

[Desmond Teo]

you’ll need it to set composable content for the activity

[Alexander Suraphel]

What if I am only setting composable content only inside a fragment? @Desmond Teo

[Desmond Teo]

it also provides features like handling back press in compose with BackHandler for example, so i think it depends on your needs

[Alexander Suraphel]

Okay thanks. will look into it

[Colton Idle]

You could just remove the dep and see if everything still compiles fine? 😄

One way to find out where it’s actually used ;)
