List in view using material3

Does material 3 work with android views or only jetpack compose?
1 project | /r/androiddev | 9 May 2023

It works with both. Components for the view system are available on Github.
This Affects?

Why Material 3 SearchBar doesn't have any "OnQueryChangeListener" ? How am i suppose to use it if such important listener is missing from the component ?
1 project | /r/androiddev | 9 Apr 2023

Could you recommend some android Apps?
2 projects | /r/androidapps | 19 Mar 2023

I'm not a dev, but I'm curious about this, cause I thought Material Components was made years ago as a library for devs to dynamically use said material components, so they would have an easier time updating their apps when the guidelines changed. Did I interpret it wrong?
do any one know how to get this effect? I couldn't find it .

Material Components has ToggleButton which does exactly what you want

Does anyone else hate recyclerviews and how android handles lists.
4 projects | /r/androiddev | 20 Nov 2021

I used to hate recyclerview and writing their adapters each time until i came across Airbnb Epoxy. Now I've forgotten how to write View Holders and sh*t. This library has made more comfortable with RV. I haven't started compose because i feel it's still not ready for complicated apps like content apps or e commerce etc.

How would you achieve these kind of layouts without nested RecyclerViews?
2 projects | /r/androiddev | 1 Sep 2021

I would suggest epoxy as well. The bigger cards would use Grouping and then everything is just EpoxyModel.
