org.gradle.api.artifacts.UnknownConfigurationException: Configuration with name 'kotlinPlugin' not found
With AGP 4.0.0-alpha01 and Kotlin gradle plugin 1.3.60-eap-25, what else do I need to add to gradle to enable this? (as shown in the compose tutorial: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose/setup#compose-compiler)
PS: Also not working with Kotlin plugin version 1.3.60-eap-76.

Same here

Also, I created a new project with the compose template and found out they don't use this option there 🤔.

Sorry, the kotlinPlugin option is an artifact from the way we do this in aosp, which somehow made it into our docs. I pinged our docs team to get this removed. Please do not specify kotlinPlugin.

The kotlin compiler plugin is installed by AGP when you specify compose true, which is currently not used in our repository, thus the discrepancy.

[Luca Nicoletti]

compose true is also broken https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CJLTWPH7S/p1571904430304000

[jim]

I am unable to reproduce the Could not find method compose(). Only thing I can think of is that you aren't actually using AGP 4.0.0, but you said you did specify it, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🤦🏼‍♂️ was using it inside the wrong parent note
