I wrote a small Compose multiplatform app that let's you choose directories full of APKs on your machine, shows their absolute paths in a list, and writes a manifest file about them using information from aapt. The app has an

ApkDataRepository

class to manage APK data, and the data source is just a private

MutableStateFlow

property of the repository itself. In trying to adhere to advice from different things I've read, my repository exposes the data as a

Flow

and CRUD methods as suspending functions. IntelliJ is indicating that all of the suspend modifiers on my

ApkDataRepository

functions are redundant so I'm feeling like I did something wrong there. I'm trying out another simple app and would like to learn from my past mistakes, so any advice or examples is appreciated. I've considered that maybe suspending functions and

Flow

are just overkill for such a simple app, but at the same time hope that it's possible to use contrived, low-complexity use cases like this to better understand coroutine and Flow concepts.
