Codelab: Jetpack Compose Basics
summary
Step-by-step codelab builds a small Compose app in Android Studio Arctic Fox showing setContent and @Composable functions, Material theming and Preview, using modifiers for padding and layout; it extracts UI into reusable composables, toggles an onboarding screen via a hosted boolean state, uses remember (and rememberSaveable) for state so expansion survives recomposition, and renders a performant list with LazyColumn with 1,000 items; the result runs in preview and on device and the onboarding → greetings flow and button-driven expand/collapse behavior work as demonstrated.
