Great video.

I have a request: How to load a json file in a kmp project.
That is a very common use case that is not documented very well in the jetbrains docs. How does the native (android, ios, desktop) know where to find this json file?

Can you make a video on how adjust the size of text fields specifically height, without hiding the font text in the field.

This is great. I really wonder what the future of coding will be with AI. Already now, ChatGPT and Gemini are really good in explain Android Compose code (or other code for that matter) and giving good functions on request, it is amazing. How long before you can just describe your project in human terms and AI will produce a complete app. I guess is not if it will happen, but when. What do you think?

The Most Version i am very waited For !

Could you create a video about the time-saving and critical use cases of Compose Fragments? For example, it would be helpful to know when it's best to use a Compose Fragment versus a standard Composable in different scenarios.

I haven't seen the video, but the title seems prone to bug because the list might be empty. Also, if this optimization is accepted, why does the iteration start from this element. Still need to be careful with AI 😁

this thing is filled to top with bugs, the update name checks out.

It's not fair to say gemini is "same as chatgpt". Unfortunately, it's nowhere near it. Tbh, it's trash actually. I've to switch app and use chatgpt time to time
