As Android Studio 4.2-beta1 is out today, can we stay at 4.2 to use compose or is canary still recommended?

[John O'Reilly]

It looks like (at least right now) Compose projects will build/run on 4.2 beta (and earlier versions in fact)....what certainly won't work is some of the tooling support, in particular the Preview capability

[John O'Reilly]

This is shown for example if you try and build compose app in 4.2 beta

I saw a mention somewhere that at least for now, only Canary versions of AS are officially supported for Compose
