Is that a question or a statement?

There is a Desktop preview, although it's more limited than the Android one in a couple of ways, at present. 1) Does not support interactive preview so you can't 'test drive' behaviours like you can in Android. 2) isn't integrated with the Code/Design/Split style panel familiar from Android tooling, existing in a separate panel. Also control over the preview layout via annotations it's more limited.

That said, I understand the feature is still being worked on, with interactive preview definitely on the roadmap, so this differences may grow less over time.

By the way, your question read like a statement. Easiest way to make it clear is just end with a '?'.

And it also requires a AS/IntelliJ plugin. Sorry for not having the name or link handy
