About AnnotatedString API to have multiple styles for a text, how to achieve it with a string resource? Let's say I have the following one: <string name="news_count_title">{{count}} {{text}}</string> . I would like count and text to have different styles. How to properly achieve it in Compose?

Not implemented in compose yet. :/ there is a ticket with title (~)Styled string resource

I didn't think much yet, but if i were to do it today i'd use Annotation class/tag in string resources and create an AnnotatedString from the Spanned i have.

That's the solution I had in mind too 👍 I'm already using it to have clickable text inside a string. I was just hoping for something out of the box

I just released a library on top of the Compose AnnotatedString API to make this much easier https://github.com/copper-leaf/thistle
