I am trying to replicate the Instagram like button animation, little confused how to proceed with compose animations. I can use ObjectAnimator if I had to implement it in a traditional way. Can anybody guide me on this?

Here's an example of animating a green square with press gesture: https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/frameworks/support/+/androidx-master-dev:compose/animation/animation/integration-tests/animation-demos/src/main/java/androidx/compose/animation/demos/GestureBasedAnimationDemo.kt It should be similar to what you are trying to achieve. :)
