Has everyone set the Kotlin plugin channel to early access preview? When I updated to Compose alpha12 I had to do that (I think). My Android Studio is now a disaster. Autocomplete fails, or the suggestion popup disappears immediately so it's unusable. Some files can't open, or hang on "Loading..." or "Analyzing..." while pegging CPU. I can't get work done.

Oh, same stuff 😞 But 1.4.30 is required for alpha12

@robnik Which AS version are you on?

I believe the next AndroidStudio Canary (in like 3 days) has stable 1.4.30 support by default, so fingers crossed that will improve things.

@louiscad I think I have the most recent - 2020.3.1 Canary 7.

Yay! 3 days until I can do Unresolved Reference Based API Design! What's that? It's writing code that doesn't compile, and use IDE quick actions to create the missing symbols. In the Kotlin 1.4.30 IDE plugin, errors are dramatically quicker to show up and don't slow the IDE as much as before, so this way of API design will be way more convenient to adopt.
