How to use flow with lazyColumn? collectAsState() or adding each element in a local MutableSnapshotList using something like onEach or collect { }

[Kshitij Patil]

I guess you'd use Flow<List<T>> in the dao instead of Flow<T> to get all the items

collectAsState feels more idiomatic. Adding to the snapshot list feels like trying to fit imperative habits into it 🤷‍♂️ That's my opinion though

Yes. I was looking for a list being updated in real-time and with Room's support for Flow<List<T>> and compose's collectAsState I was easily able to achieve the same
