Ask Googlers about Jetpack Compose
summary
Jetpack Compose is alpha now with 1.0 planned next year and the panel gives concrete status: APK impact: ~9 MB debug, 2.2 MB minified for small samples; lazy grids are being developed, pager is planned, and paging3 integration merged into lazy lists. Navigation support (arguments, deep links) is navigation API in active development, DI/Hilt integration is experimental, nested scrolling and headless UI testing are not ready, accessibility plumbing and dialogs via a composable-backed Android dialog exist, and layout/measure perf is already faster while composition work continues.
