Developing Wear OS Apps with Jetpack Compose
summary
Shows concrete results and code: uses Compose for Wear OS 1.0, demos a working UI built with scalingLazyColumn + Scaffold (timeText + positionIndicator), and navigates between screens with the Wear navigation library and swipe-to-dismiss behavior. Recommends Android Studio Electric Eel / Flamingo features like Live Edit, points to Horologist and sample codelabs, and explains emulator tips (ARM64 system image). Expect specific component code, a before/after UI tweak, and a runnable sample rather than high-level design platitudes.
