Can I build CfD locally? If so, from which sources? I don't need Web.

[Igor Demin]

Yes. Download submodule, configure environment, and run ./scripts/publish

Thanks. How much 'upstream' is that path? I've met various branches like jetbrains/androidx/jb-main, jetbrains/androidx/androidx-main, androidx/androidx/androidx-main and this one, all of them seem to have different commits and I wonder which one is the release or the develop one.

E.g. on maven there is 0.0.0-use_kotlin_1.6.10-RC-dev512, will it be there?

[Igor Demin]

release/1.0 branch is 1.0.0

0.0.0-use_kotlin_1.6.10-RC-dev512 won't be there. it is an experimental branch

[Igor Demin]

0.0.0-use_kotlin_1.6.10-RC-dev512 is built from use_kotlin_1.6.10-RC

Ok, I see there are various active branches on JetBrains/compose-jb, should I care about any other aforementioned one, e.g. jetbrains/androidx/jb-main? It looks like commits are picked from one another in some way.

[Igor Demin]

jb-main is outdated for now, but we will use it as a base for 1.1/1.2 in the future

And in case I want only ever to build desktop, is there a chance I can get away without setting up andorid dependencies (Android SDK, IJ instead of AS)?

[Igor Demin]

The build system uses it, so it isn't possible

[Igor Demin]

IJ instead of AS

You don't need an IDE, if you just need to build artifacts. If you need to change some code, you can only work in Android Studio. IJ doesn't support the latest Android plugin
