Has someone talked about how animations will work? Is it going to be TransitionManager automatic type of stuff?

You can have a look at some example bundle with repo

Ripple is a good example for animations imho

You also might want to take a look at Transition composable and transitionDefinition function, if you want to have declarative animation between states

[matvei]

If you want flexible control over animation of one value, consider using AnimatedFloat or AnimatedValue, so you can have animatable value holder experience

I believe they are also planning to add something like SwiftUI’s withAnimation in the future.

@Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD] interesting, but how would I know which animation to play, or rather from which state to animate from? Would I need to keep a reference to a previous state? (since ui now has no state)

[Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD]]

No idea. I assume it would be similar to how SwiftUI does it but you'd have to ask someone who's actually working on it 😂
