What is the best way to load a bitmap with a suspend function?

I want to use Google Places sdk and it provide a `Task` that returns `Bitmap`... I've added an `await()` method to convert it to Bitmap directly... but, how to load it onto Composable?

I've thought to use `Coil` with custom ImageLoader, and pass the id as `data =`, but it looks overeenginering

You can use the `.asImageBitmap()` extension to get a Compose `ImageBitmap` object for the input Android `Bitmap`, then use it in an `Image` composable

uhmmm, but i will need to obtain the bitmap from places sdk on the composabale? i wanted to spslit the code...

You can obtain the bitmap from anywhere you can run scoped async code. `LaunchedEffect` would be one way to do it very locally in a composable, but once the proof of concept is up and running I'm guessing you'll want to do the actual load in some other repository scope or similar and cache it more globally for the app
