Hi everyone! 😄
I tried creating Neumorphism UI with Jetpack Compose. You can take a look at the lib/code here - https://github.com/CuriousNikhil/neumorphic-compose
I’m learning this and probability of the code being correct/holding best practices may be less. 😅
I’ve a couple of questions.
The idea is simple, I’ve created a custom modifier by extending the DrawModifier and I’m drawing the shadows using contentDrawScope provided by DrawModifier.
1. First of all, Is this a correct to extend the modifiers?
2. To render the shadows(GradientDrawable) smoothly, I’m using RenderScript (I know it’s going to be deprecated in the Android12. I’ll migrate.). I need context param to invoke renderscript api. Is it okay to pass context param in the Modifier?

For 2, couldn't you use LocalContext instead of having to pass it in as a parameter?

[Nikhil]

But LocalContext.current needs to be called from another @Composable function.
This is simple Modifier

[Derek Ellis]

You can mark your modifier function with @Composable

[Chachako]

No, this is incorrect, composed Modifier should be used, this will allow you to call the LocalContext.current in the Modifier

@Chachako Thanks! I missed this. This is nice! I’ll use this^
