simple-stack-compose-integration VS simple-stack

Yup, that's why we're working on https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack-compose-integration/ to make it as simple as backstack.goTo(SomeScreenKey(arg1, arg2)) instead of this navController.navigateTo("some/screen&arg1=${UrlEncoder.encode(arg1.toBase64())} stuff. If you are working on an Android app that will always be on Android-only, why would you inherit limitations from Kotlin Multi-platform?

We have https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack-compose-integration/ but the fact that I'd normally prefer to use fragments kinda holds it back

Simple-Stack-Compose https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack-compose-integration

However, it's worth noting that thanks to a guy named @matejdro we are working on a pure-Compose version, in which setup has been reduced to

And ,yes, although not being made for Compose, also Simple stack :)

i'd love to recommend simple-stack-compose-integration but i never wrote this missing link

Using any of the 5 prominent community alternatives is a better approach (even though most people hoping to use the docs as if it was like, written for stable code, will muck around with their apps crashing if the user inputs a & symbol). I have this thing but I'd consider taking a look at https://github.com/adrielcafe/voyager or maybe https://github.com/olshevski/compose-navigation-reimagined

If you're deadset on full compose navigation I'd check out Zhuinden`s simple-stack-compose-integration

I'm almost tempted to use multiple ComposeViews, but I'm definitely not using 1 ComposeView N composables any time soon, even though technically I have the code to support it.

As someone who had been using single-activity since 2015 (a'la Flow) and eventually just rewrote the whole thing to fix all the bugs we had with it in 2017, I find it sad that the single-activity approach was questioned not because it was harder, but because people made their own lives harder. And then Google made their lives harder.

I've been using single-activity but with Simple-Stack since 2016 and never deprecated it because Navigation just has these quirks that impede you a lot. I know how to use it but wouldn't really pick it.

This is why we've been using https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack and it was never deprecated. We've been using it for 6 years, I'd say there was a critical bug but it was fixed in 2.3.1...

I mean, we use Simple-Stack because it makes things easier, if it didn't we'd have ditched it long ago https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack

Agreed. I also added support for it 2 weeks ago.

I don't, because we use this and it's better than activities+intents 😅

We've been making single activity apps with https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack and it has been easier than multi-activity.

I still use https://github.com/Zhuinden/simple-stack to this day, although I still use it with fragments.

I have been using Fragments instead of compound viewgroups lately with simple-stack as the navigator for the single-activity, although I need to figure out how to switch to use onBackPressed+onBackInvokedCallback and not just onBackPressed.

You can think of Simple-Stack as a direct successor of Mortar+Flow.
