naming is more just a historical thing. Back when it first came out, it was only targeting Desktop and used skija (the Java-only Skia wrapper). It was just “Jetbrains’s Compose, for desktop”.
It was later when skija was fully replaced by the multiplatform skiko and work started on other Skia-based targets, and by that time the artifacts and project name were already established, and it’s usually not worth the trouble for a name change at that pointCLOVIS

import.
Plus, Google is part of the Kotlin foundation, so naming kotlinx.
doesn't really take anything away from them?androidx
is for adoption. Compose Web is IMO great, and I've been trying to pitch it to multiple React/Angular teams who already write their backends in Kotlin, and the "it's just an android library, why should I care about it?" feeling is very common.Javier
