New Features

Navigation3 is a new navigation library built specifically to handle Jetpack Compose in-app navigation. The androidx.navigation3.runtime artifact provides the building blocks, while the androidx.navigation3.ui artifact provides the UI layer via the NavDisplay API. Developers can provide their own state directly to the NavDisplay composable function, which changes the content based on changes in the developer state.

@Serialiable object Home : NavKey
@Serialiable object Chat : NavKey

val backStack = rememberNavBackStack(Home)

NavDisplay(backStack, entryProvider = entryProvider {
  entry<Home> {
    Column {
      Text(“Home”)
      Button(onClick = { backStack.add(Chat) } ) {
        Text(“Go to Chat”)
      } 
    }
  }
  entry<Chat> { /* My Composable Content */ }
})
