The new Child Items navigation model
This release introduces a new experimental navigation model – Child Items. It's designed specifically for displaying child components in lazy lists or grids, but can also be used to organize components in an arbitrary list with flexible lifecycles. See the updated docs.
New JetpackComponentContext API
This release adds a new module jetpack-component-context that provides the JetpackComponentContext API for interop with AndroidX Architecture Components. See the updated docs for more information.
The new androidPredictiveBackAnimatableV2 animation
The androidPredictiveBackAnimatable has been renamed to androidPredictiveBackAnimatableV1. Plus the new androidPredictiveBackAnimatableV2 animation was added, resembling the standard predictive back animation from Android Vanilla Ice Cream and Baklava. See the updated docs for more information.
The ChildStack composable function now exposes StackAnimationScope instead of AnimatedVisibilityScope, providing access to stackAnimationDirection: Direction? property. This allows better UI customization during stack animations.
Improved predictive back animation scaling quality
This release significantly improves the quality of scaling when performing predictive back animations with Jetpack Compose.
