Does compose provide some standalone way to deal with Strings and translations without xml resources?

[Afzal Najam]

I believe the stringResource function should be able to pull in the strings for the current language.

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Yes, sorry I didn’t explain properly, correcting the message now

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

I seen there’s an intl artifact but no further info

Looks like it's for getting the locale object

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Yup, but no further information about its purpose/usage
Given it has a proper artifact, I was hoping in something as I described that can take benefit from it

[Afzal Najam]

Yeah. I think if this doesn't already exist, one could, theoretically, develop a system similar to Flutter:

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Yup, not so hard, just didn’t want to reinvent the wheel 🙂

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

Thank you 🙂

[Afzal Najam]

Maybe somebody has a better answer if they're working on something similar

[Davide Giuseppe Farella]

I’ll be waiting, still have to explore a lot about Compose 🙂
