Hi all
I'm trying to add navigation and not sure if doing it wrong...

https://github.com/alorma/AC-Community/commit/4988aa39985c215d755d896d494ed5f444d25a1b

I have a HomeScreen with BottomNavigation with 3 items.

Also, i would want other screens without BottomNavigation

[alorma]

I not see the items on HomeScreen, the HomePart

We had just talked about hiding/showing the bottom nav on certain destinations a while ago: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CJLTWPH7S/p1620346074115700

[alorma]

thanks, I've found another way usssing a different navHost inside HomeScreen

[Ian Lake]

That previous conversation specifically says that you should not do that

[alorma]

I will read it... just looking around by now

[alorma]

uhmmmmm

[alorma]

but if i do that, I'm forced to havbe the same top bar to all composabales too?

[Ian Lake]

What makes you think that also can't change based on what destination you're on?

[alorma]

uhmm

[alorma]

it seems weird to have the TopBar outside the "internal" composables, sso many things can be coupled / decoupoled...

[Ian Lake]

We've talked about that also: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CJLTWPH7S/p1620959319009300?thread_ts=1620952017.004700&cid=CJLTWPH7S

I'm starting to think that we are overengineering compose, with all lambdas and passing things around 😅

[Ian Lake]

I think that thread covers why building stateless composables that you can test and preview in isolation from the rest of the system is a good thing. You are testing and previewing your individual composables right? 😅

[alorma]

What means "testing"? 🧌
