Is there easy way to achieve snapping (paging) like behavior in LazyRow?

There is a FlingBehavior param on LazyRow which allows to build such behaviour, but if you are looking for ViewPager-like component please follow the upcoming implementation to be added in accompanist: https://github.com/chrisbanes/accompanist/pull/209

Is there a reason compose foundation or material doesn’t want to make a Pager component? It is already one of the most used and requested components as far as I know

We may someday add a pager to foundation/material. We have some concerns that if we add one in a rush, it may not make everyone happy because we've heard requests for many variations (for example with extra padding to snap to, ads in the middle with different behavior, etc).

So we've focused so far on providing powerful low-level primitives like 
FlingBehavior
that can allow building any of the possible variations on top of them. And enabling a multi-artifact style of development instead of a monolith so that it's elegant to use libraries like accompanist alongside compose.

That’s good to know. I am sure we can build a much more powerful pager than the 
ViewPager
given the flexibility compose brings with it. But I understand it takes time and will be a complex widget to make. Thanks for the update.
