Jetpack Compose Support ?

[wakaztahir]

Problem to be addressed

Since jetpack compose is now stable , I was wondering if zoom layout will support jetpack compose
Since jetpack compose supports interoperability , compose offers easy access to the motion event
There are other libraries but zoom layout supports many features and I am sure zoom engine could be easily integrated with jetpack compose

Describe the solution you'd like

An extension library or compose version or maybe a simple composable modifier or composable that uses zoom engine to provide zoom layout features to Composables

Additional context

There are other libraries but since so much functionality has already been implemented in zoom engine , it could offer a better solution to zoom problems

I don't have much experience with compose (yet), but I don't see why we couldn't support this.
If you are interested in coming up with a proposal I would be happy to review and make suggestions.

I'll try but I am not good at library creation

Since I wanted to recreate my KodeEditor pet project in compose, I had to come up with a solution to this myself. While I have not used the ZoomEngine, I did create a composable (with the ZoomLayout name) here:

Maybe we can use this as a starting point to integrate the ZoomApi?

I have created a code editor in jetpack compose

Jetpack compose has still this issue https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/135556699 blocking multiline styling

I think Jetpack compose could use the mature zoom engine
