@ragunathjawahar the use case is any reconcilation. For compose specificaly, it is the reconcilation of ui elements being added, removed or modified

Is this conceptually similar to what DiffUtil / Eugene Myers algorithm does?

@ragunathjawahar Yes, it is a generalization of algorithms used under the hood of DiffUtil, React and similar frameworks and tools

the “reconciling” that compose needs to do is quite a bit different if i understand correctly, so i don’t think this would apply to us (but might if we were building a full element hierarchy like some other declarative frameworks do)
