11/19/2020, 9:19 PMHello guys! I was wondering what is the best wat to pass data into composition? Let's say in my MainActivity I call another activity and get some data in the onActivityResult, how do I go about passing this data into my composition tree? I was thinking I could have an activity view model with a LiveData and do observeAsState inside, but I don't know if that is the best way
