Navigation & Adaptive UI

You implement type-safe navigation by defining routes via Kotlin Serialization in a Destinations file, then using a NavController to navigate and extract route arguments, ensuring compile-time route validation.

You build an adaptive UI layout by applying the NavigableListDetailPaneScaffold pattern, which automatically adjusts multi-pane list-detail experiences to respond correctly across phones, tablets, and foldable devices.

You prevent back navigation conflicts by enforcing scaffold-backed back navigation behavior, ensuring dependencies on Destinations definitions are strictly applied to avoid navigator mismatches within the adaptive layout.

Nav 3 is a navigation approach used to model routes with Kotlin Serialization and manage multi-pane adaptive layouts, needed when you require consistent, scalable UI flows across different device sizes.

A navigator mismatch error typically occurs when dependencies on Destinations definitions are not properly enforced, causing conflicts between the NavController and the NavigableListDetailPaneScaffold during route extraction.
