Jetpack Compose Journey

Hi there, nice to have you again. In my previous post, I talked about starting a Jetpack compose 30 day challenge starting September 1 and documenting here. So far, I wasn’t able to document but I’ve being learning. So in this post, I’ll be sharing all I’ve learnt in the past three days.

DAY 1

On the first day, all I did was just a background search about Jetpack Compose; what its about, why learning it is important as android developer. Basically just a general overview about Compose.

DAY 2

On the second day, I started taking lessons on Jetpack Compose from the official documentation page. I learnt about composable functions, layouts in compose (Row and Column), using modifiers, Image elements, Text elements, Spacer Elements, Material Design in compose(just some basic stuff), LazyColumn, LazyRow. All I this basically was to follow the lessons here.

DAY 3

On the third day, I learnt how to use ConstraintLayout and I started implementing Jetpack compose in one of my previous project.

DAY 4

On the fourth day (today), I’ll be taking the codelabs offered by Android Developers and hopefully complete it.

Conclusion

So far, its been fun using Jetpack Compose and I find that its quite easy to learn (thanks to Android Developers). I hope to keep the momentum

Thanks for reading.
