Maybe an "dumb" question, but is it possible to embed a fragment in Jetpack compose (So not Jetpack compose inside a fragment)?

Not that I know of: Compose interop is with the View class, (and viceversa) not with Fragment class.

Warning: Due to issues with fragments, it's recommended to avoid embedding fragments inside the AndroidView composable. Follow this issue here.

So after https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/179915946 is fixed it will be possible to put a FragmentContainerView inside an AndroidView composable? 🥶

Ah, thx!

If you copy/paste the workaround code in that or wait for the 3 in flight PRs to land and that issue marked as fixed, using AndroidViewBinding with a layout that inflates a FragmentContainerView with a fragment will work just fine in a compose hierarchy

I'd use it more of as a transitional step and not as a final, suggested architecture though 🙂

FWIW, all of the fixes got checked in today, so they should be available in the next Compose beta
