07/15/2020, 8:56 AMHi. Is it possible to use this technology together with mvvm architecture?
t
Timo Drick
07/15/2020, 8:59 AMIt is independent of any architecture. In my opinion MVVM architecture maybe makes more sense in Compose. Because in Android legacy system you have already the Android view/controller (View -> View |Activity,Fragment -> Controller) architecture putting MVVM on this just doubles you boilerplate code. So yes Compose will work with most architectures i think.

07/15/2020, 9:05 AMcan you recommend some kind of example? I'm wondering how to implement something similar to two-way binding

07/15/2020, 9:11 AMIn Compose you define composables (functions) which gets the data as parameters and define callbacks to get back user interactions. You could also define the datamodel in a special way (MutabelState<T>) and access this from different parts of your app. It will be synchronized.
Btw. you can define also the composable functions inside of a class and access functions of this class. The approach is completely differnt from the legacy view system. So take you time to understand it but there are no limits. But all thinks must be implemented a little bit different to the legacy view system.

07/15/2020, 9:20 AMYes i think also completely different. And keep in mind every thing is under heavy development.
Here the sample with Opengl inside of Compose:
