Dear developers, would continue learning XML or start learning Jetpack Compose be more convenient?

Yes you can. Sadly I can't share any code on how to, but you can checkout Anko Layouts (although deprecated now and I never used it). I edited my post also, to show you how it looks like.

If you take a look at the repository, you'll find something rather interesting in its dependencies. It uses Anko Layouts to render some parts of its UI! This was an early, now deprecated and abandoned attempt by JetBrains to create declarative Android UI with Kotlin DSLs.
