Understanding file associations in JVM apps
So, to add file associations, we need to be able to pass both the .properties file and the --file-associations option. At the time of writing this article, the org.jetbrains.compose plugin doesn't provide such a mechanism. There is an open issue on GitHub that describes a possible workaround, which, unfortunately seems to not work on macOS.

As for missing controls, a common one is a grid. They have built in grids, but again they are built for Android and don't make any sense in a desktop app. There is no simple way to create an Excel-like Data Grid like you might see in Windows Forms, although it can be done. https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/issues/344.
