animate has been deprecated and should now be animateAsState however, there are 2 different top level functions for T, and one for Color

androidx.compose.animation.animateAsState (Color)
androidx.compose.animation.core.animateAsState (T)

Is that intended?

Yes, that's intended, because of library dependencies: animation-core doesn't depend on ui-graphics, so all Color-specific animation APIs are in animation lib. Are you having trouble importing the color variant?

[jaqxues]

Well it creates issues since both have the same names, and wanting to use both functions in the same file. I just used import aliases now, but I think there might be a better way?

There's a bug tracking that at https://b.corp.google.com/issues/177072147. If you could add your use case in a snippet that would be helpful for studio to verify the fix. 🙂
