What's new in Jetpack Compose | Session

为什么我们需要一个全新的UI Toolkit呢. -> 为了适应更加现代化的开发方式.

faster & easier.

Compose将数据转换成UI.

Checkbox的例子:

UI完全由参数控制. -> single source of truth. 没有其他的状态需要sync.

把参数和回调提到方法参数中去:

• You completely describe your UI for a given state.
• The framework updates your UI when the state changes.

这里有个图, 推荐ViewModel暴露一个Screen状态, 集中管理, 然后下发到每个composable.

这样也利于测试.

Compose实现了material design, 提供了组件, 还有theming system.

有一个owl app的实现解说.

和传统view的interop.
