CommunityPick the cheapest correct Compose effect API.
System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Compose requires choosing among LaunchedEffect, DisposableEffect, SideEffect, RememberedEffect, and ViewModelStoreScope to implement effects efficiently. This skill helps you pick the cheapest correct API for the scenario and avoid common pitfalls like stale callbacks and unnecessary coroutine scopes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Decision tree guidance to select among LaunchedEffect, DisposableEffect, RememberedEffect, SideEffect, and ViewModelStoreScope based on the task (long-running work, setup/teardown, synchronous key reactions, or per-row ViewModel needs).
- Patterns for managing stale callbacks with rememberUpdatedState and for per-item ViewModels in LazyColumn using ViewModelStoreScope.
- Best practices for avoiding per-frame work in SideEffect and for using RememberedEffect for synchronous key reactions.
Quick Start
Describe your Compose scenario and have the agent recommend and implement the most appropriate effect API (LaunchedEffect, DisposableEffect, RememberedEffect, SideEffect, or ViewModelStoreScope) for that case.
