Might be getting nitpicky here, but android teams compose bom is declared as:
```implementation(platform("...```
while chris banes compose alpha bom is
```api(platform("...```
As a gradle noob, is there one that's better than the other?

You need to use `api` with Chris’ solution, as `api` ~pulls~ exposes transitive dependencies - so that you can have access to compose’s libraries

Edit for bad wording :see_no_evil:

`implementation` or `api` only differ in what they expose to _other_ modules, it has nothing to do with what it pulls in

For example, if you had a library module that used an `api` dependency, then your app module that depends on that library would automatically gain access to those dependencies, just as if it had declared all of those dependencies itself

If instead the library module used an `implementation` dependency, it is only an implementation detail (hence the name) and your app module wouldn't be able to use anything declared in that dependency at all unless it _also_ declared its own, separate dependency
