compose-router VS compose-destinations

Compose router

Many complain about Compose Navigation, with good reason, but there are alternatives out there, I use this one https://github.com/zsoltk/compose-router.

I found this library to be a great replacement https://github.com/zsoltk/compose-router. The example contains a login logout state which is exactly what you are asking for.

One thing I dislike about navigation component is the way it handle args. You don't need an arguments parameter because your destination is basically a composable function which can accept parameters (as it is a function). See compose-router.

The Badoo devs are working on this in both badoo/RIBs and also https://github.com/zsoltk/compose-router

This time is about navigation, when raamcosta ( https://github.com/raamcosta/compose-destinations) in jetpack compose

The biggest help of all by far was Compose Destinations. It takes away all the boilerplate of maintaining your routes. A simple way to not have to create all those routes yourself with placeholders etc, including deeplink patterns and all. It generates all of that for you in a typesafe way. Just check the basic example on GitHub or the dedicated documentation website.

Here is a great solution for navigation in compose. Actually this is what Google should have done in the first place https://github.com/raamcosta/compose-destinations

Compose destinations is another alternative: https://github.com/raamcosta/compose-destinations

Hey, thanks for sharing here. Do you mind sharing how exactly this library is different from this one https://github.com/raamcosta/compose-destinations and why one would use one over the other?

I don't have much experience with conductor, so I'm curious what your concerns about lifecycle is lacking compared to fragments? But if your team already knows that framework I might just stick with views over fragments. I see there is a compose integration if you do ever plan on picking that up with conductor. Otherwise compose makes fragments obsolete and your team already knows conductor. I do agree the navigation story in compose is not mature especially after jetpack compose navigation. But there are other 3rd party libraries like compose destinations or decompose, but would be nice to see something better 1st party.

I can't recommend the vanilla compose navigation from Google, but the community has built others like compose destinations which is pretty good.
