https://maven.google.com/web/index.html#androidx.compose.runtime:runtime:1.0.0-beta01 beta01 is technically official

Sigh. Feels like a rushed executive decision - "We WILL publish 1.0.0 before the end of 2021 or nobody gets their bonuses!"

It’s taken them like 3 or 4 years to get here, ~2 of which Compose has been publicly available – not exactly what I would call rushed.

Just remember how long Gmail was in Beta... 10 years?

I stand corrected 😛

Exactly, not rushed so far. But getting from

alpha

to

stable

for such a mammoth lib in just a few months doesn't feel right.

I think the wording was misleading in the announcement. The API is stable in beta, but there are still features that might be missing and behavior that might be wrong.
