A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

Hello devs. I was wondering is it possible to create homescreen widgets with compose?

It's on the roadmap:

The API is pre-alpha so use at your own risk

I just played with it a bit for an innovation week - definitely a few rough edges so test thoroughly for your use case, and be wary of investing too much time right now if you run into issues.

Worked great for the innovation week though :laughing:

I'll try it for the fun. I started with Compose when it was in Alpha after all...

Yes you can certainly try it! But I do have to have the pre-alpha disclaimer to set expectations properly :slightly_smiling_face:
• API will change
• Docs may not exist and/or will change
• Likely no codelabs
• No tooling support in Android Studio
