So I found that you could create a

ViewModel

in

Compose

using

viewModel()

composable function. I was wondering how to scope these

ViewModel

similar to how

ViewModel

could be scoped to

Activity

/

Fragment

or

NavGraph

? Is this possible to do in

Compose

?

You can provide your own

ViewModelStoreOwner

via

ViewModelStoreOwnerAmbient

.

Link to this please? This is knew news to me

it is already scoped to the activity, or fragment if you compose into the view added to fragment

Yes, but going compose means no

Activity

or

Fragment

right?

well Activities aren't going anywhere and fragments are probably going to be around for foreseeable future. It is not yet clear how the old relation between ViewModels and LifecycleOwner classes(Activity, Fragment) will transition into Compose. Currently. there seems to be no change. There is

viewModel()

composable that connects these worlds but IMO it is far more useful for transitioning to compose, rather than keep using ViewModels as the default state management. Of course, it depends on a lot of factors and in the end ViewModels can stay around thanks to the introduction of

StateFlow

,

SharedFlow

. I found that

Compose-Hilt-ViewModel

trio play well together in small examples.

Is

SharedFlow

already available?

Nope. https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/pull/2069#issuecomment-656645865
