I said it once, I'll say it again: You might think you're doing your project a favor by always upgrading to the latest AGP version. What you do instead is break the project for everyone who has not downloaded the latest IDE. This is pain

Casey Muratori pretty much sums up how I feel about LLMs for coding: "The AI will always be useless for me. I physically can't get what I want from programming when AI is involved, because what it is doing is robbing me of the experience that I wanted to have and the knowledge that I wanted to get"

Say hello to hot reloading compose resources, supported from CMP 1.10.0-alpha01 🔥 Initially requested by @zsmb.co and @rakhman.info Thanks to Nikita Lipsky 😇

Can kotlinx.coroutines outperform the GPU 🤯? Watch me getting humbled while trying to find out... www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCOS...

Oh, I did not expect to have so much fun building the IDE tooling/integration for Compose Hot Reload 😍 See the small floating toolbar when a session is present, even allowing you to reset your UI state!

Had fun with Skia/Skiko lately! Pretty sure some of you folks might enjoy working with it as well 😍 www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsaq...

🔥 In his KotlinConf’25 talk, “Implementing Compose Hot Reload”, @sellmair.dev explains how to use Compose Hot Reload today – and how JetBrains tech made it all possible. ✨ Plus: challenges, lessons, and a few surprises. 📹 Watch on YouTube: kotl.in/conf-compose...

🌴 Compose Hot Reload has finally reached Beta! github.com/JetBrains/co... I started the project by accident, and it's been so much fun to work on. Time for a small break 🌴, and we'll target the first stable release soon. 🫡

The KotlinConf talks are available online 🎉 Check-out how Compose Hot Reload is implemented: youtu.be/UebhKUdO2sQ?...

I joined JetBrains 5 years ago, and I still love the team. What a great experience, thank you all! ❤️

i love kotlin

If you liked Compose Hot Reload at this year's #KotlinConf then you might also enjoy this podcast with personal stories and behind the scenes of hot (and why) it was built: thebakery.dev/98/

See you at KotlinConf 🤪🎇

KMP-NativeCoroutines is now using a K2 compiler plugin to generate Kotlin code. Allowing for a better IDE experience. Please report any issues on Github. github.com/rickclephas/...

Compose Hot Reload alpha10 just dropped 🔥 github.com/JetBrains/co... - Dark Mode - CLI improvements - Better Process Management Please provide feedback! Beta should be around the corner!

@sellmair.dev Your Compose Hot Reload thing is a pure banger! 🤯😍😍🤯 Tweaking animations & everything else is such a breeze now. Thanks to the way shorter feedback loop, I can tell I'll do things I'd have never done without it. Thank you!! ❤️❤️ github.com/JetBrains/co...

🎉 Looking forward to feedback for Compose Hot Reload alpha06, which finally supports 'jar-based reloads' and async launch modes. github.com/JetBrains/co...

Compose Hot Reload alpah05 is available. 🎉 github.com/JetBrains/co... If the feedback is good enough, we will start targeting beta soon 🤞

Feel free to hate me, but I might actually like yaml. Used it to define internal & advanced properties for Compose Hot Reload (which will generate code at build time). github.com/JetBrains/co... Defining a schema is simple, IDE support is great. I am likely using it more in the future. 👌

Call for Feedback: github.com/JetBrains/co... Compose Hot Reload, targeting beta hopefully soon.

Things getting serious #compose #hotreload

I pushed the button on jetc.dev Newsletter Issue #260! Wrapping! Wrapping! More wrapping! Optimizing composables! @sellmair.dev on optimizing Hot Reload! @paligot.com and JSON Forms! LiveKit! jetc.dev/issues/260 #JetpackCompose #AndroidDev

Actually, I would also like to share a fun story about this Compose Hot Reload Release (alpha04)! github.com/JetBrains/co... The Toolbox team was working on integrating Hot Reload into their project and discovered that the runtime-analysis failed on some Composables.

Try out Compose Hot Reload alpha04! It contains some nice fixes for Windows and the Runtime Tracking. github.com/JetBrains/co...

I just had one of the coolest calls in quite some time with @bnorm.dev. We wanted to talk about a potential issue, but then drifted into him explaining his project, github.com/bnorm/storyboard, to me. I wish he had shown me this before I started preparing for my next talk. 🤯🔥

⚡️ From 8 minutes down to 0.5ms: Compose Hot Reload 1.0.0-alpha03 was released with a re-implementation of its core 'dirty resolution algorithm': blog.sellmair.io/being-quick-... Enjoy 🍻 github.com/JetBrains/co...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwev... Kotlin 🤝 MCP @sebi.io nailed it on this one! I rly want to try this out! github.com/SebastianAig...

Oooh, there might be something cool in the pipeline 😳 While Compose is slowly getting hot 🔥, it seems that the Kotlin compiler might get cool ❄️😎 @rakhman.info 😬

I sent out jetc.dev Newsletter Issue #256! Compose beta! Compose Multiplatform alpha! @sellmair.dev on hot reload! @c5inco.bsky.social on mesh gradients! @jorgecastillo.dev on strong skipping! Permissions! And... what happens if our desktop goes dark!? jetc.dev/issues/256 #JetpackCompose #AndroidDev

Maybe the time for European technologies is now? Kotlin ftw.

🎉 🎇 First 'alpha01' artifacts for Compose Hot Reload are available on Maven Central! Enjoy! 🥳 github.com/JetBrains/co...

github.com/JetBrains/compose-hot-reload/releases/tag/v1.0.0-dev-65: Compose Hot Reload now supports even more complex environments. Happy to announce: Hot Reloading UI now works when building and working on the IntelliJ IDE.

Everyone, it is with great pleasure to inform you that the project 'Compose Hot Reload' is now bootstrapped and one can develop 'Compose Hot Reload' by 'Hot Reloading' the project 🥳

See you all at Kotlin Conf 🎆🎇

Advanced technique on improving the DX for debugging of complex projects. Sharing my new favorite System Property with you folks: blog.sellmair.io/dx-deep-debu...

I am incredibly flattered 🙇. Thank you, Dmitry. This means a lot to me!

People who never drove a car cannot build a good car. Trivially simple, almost always ignored when building software.

Maven Central *really* needs some alternatives/competitors. I admire the service for the community, but the UX they provide for developers is a puzzle to me.

We're live later today! Mark your calendar and join @zsmb.co and me to see @jetbrains.com Junie write some Kotlin code, with us supervising and having fun creating things with Compose Hot Reload! Today at 7PM CET! Save the date! calndr.link/event/ntmkFx...

TIL: IntelliJ Gradle Run Configurations do create s 'Debug Dispatch Server'. You can connect to it and request a new Debug Session for IntelliJ dynamically 🤯 Game Changer for some complex test environments of mine.

Building Hot Reload for Compose is challenging. One of the bigger challenges is testing. I did not use JUnit but built a custom test framework for building Hot Reload Tests. I especially like that test methods can just be top-level functions ☺️

All patches required for Compose Hot Reload landed in Kotlin/Compose Compiler release branches 🎉 No custom Kotlin version is needed for Hot Reload anymore 🥳 github.com/JetBrains/co...

Mocking?! Who the hell needs mocking if you can just recompile the code withing your tests directly... 🤯😎

We all know that callbacks/listeners have to be 'unregistered' when no longer needed. But how to unregister a callback or listener if the method was removed from the source code?! AfterHotReloadEffect { pritnln("Remove me" } ^ How to remove the lambda instance registration when gone?

Introducing Junie, the coding agent by JetBrains 🔥 Delegate routine tasks to Junie or pair with it on more complex ones. The Early Access Program (EAP) for Junie is now open. Join the waitlist to try it in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate 🔗 jb.gg/5zeihc

Here is a detailed explanation about how 'Compose Hot Reload' actually works under the hood 🔥 Hope you enjoy the video. Easier videos are coming again soon! www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_FM...

Back from winter vacations and pretty proud of this weeks’ dev build for Compose Hot Reload! 🙌 github.com/JetBrains/co... - Updated the Kotlin Compiler - Improved how statics are re-initialized when classes are redefined (more about this in 🧵)

Learn how #ComposeHotReload was implemented 🙌 I took some time and created a public version of a blogpost I wrote for my JetBrains colleagues. blog.sellmair.io/say-hello-to...

🎇 #ComposeHotReload is quite powerful. Here are some demos showcasing what the most recent builds allow, when writing compose apps A thread🧵
