Hello everyone. Are there any milestone about compose-web rendering directly on canvas (with no DOM)???

Nothing public to announce yet, but it is an active work in progress.

Well, we’re looking on that

...first confirmation that this actually has a PoC in play, I think ❤️ Best of luck; in time this could be huge: I think there's considerable appetite for K C/MP to get close to - what you might call - a 'power-user's Flutter'.

We previously publicly mentioned in the Compose MPP 1.0 Blog Post when we said:

On the web, you can now build production-quality dynamic web experiences using Compose for Web’s stable DOM API with full interoperability with all browser APIs. Support for Material UI widgets will be available in a future release.

If it's not too much to ask; Is the current work toward Canvas-Rendered Compose for Web aiming to run on new Kotlin/WASM, Kotlin/JS or both?

[jim]

IIUC, I think it should be backend-agnostic, as most of Kotlin is. It's being developed against Kotlin/JS, but I see no fundamental reason it wouldn't work equally well if you passed in the WASM flag.

Thanks Jim.
