    Wie gewohnt toller Content der mir direkt wieder weiter hilft! Noch ein kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag: Eine Grafik, die den gesamten Prozess schematisch darstellt kann hier wohlmöglich noch für weitere Klarheit sorgen. Ich persönlich würde vermutlich auch jedem Nested Graph seine eigene file geben, da es in größeren Programmen für mich schnell unübersichtlich wird. Dann kann man schon in der Ordnerstruktur ablesen, welche Graphs es gibt. Wohlmöglich korrelieren die dann sogar mit Feature Modulen und helfen bei der Übersicht über das Projekt ✌

    One downside to call out for this approach is that you won't be able to wrap, say, the calendar nested graph inside a Scaffold for things like tab navigation. You either have to wrap the whole NavHost inside one Scaffold and optionally show/hide the app nav bars or use a single composable() as a container for multiple tabs.

  • @DAVIDOZERSKY

    HI Phillip, as always this was an excellent video! I have a usecase that requires possibly infinite nested navigation. How would one accomplish this? Ideally we could reuse a screen or route and continually add new instances of the screen onto the backstack. Is this possible? The data is in a tree structure which we is returned in a single API call; so we know the depth of the screens we need in the first element. Interacting with the different screens is really just navigating up and down the tree; and on each screen the user is required to make selections. Some of those selections may have customizations which require selections (or sub-selections); and in order to make the selections for the customization requirements the user needs to navigate into a new screen with a lazylist that renders the customization options for that selection. So in order to determine whether a screen is in a valid state you need to have the validation state of the nested screens. This seems a bit awkward for composables. I'd prefer to use one data structure/object for the whole thing to enable screens to not have to figure out what is going on with the next level of nesting. The UI state of a screen would be managed by remember/mutable states for itself (ie the screen selections & are the requirements for that screen met) so the user can interact with a screen and the UI will recompose; but those mutable states would vary depending on the number of requirements of any given screen. I hope that this answers other peoples questions as well :)

    Thanks for the video, you rock. Very efficient. I didn't find a good practive to navigate from the view model. For example, on the login screen, when you click on the login button, it will trigger a flow that emit loadings ui state then a success state at the end, how to navigate then? - sol 1 : pass a nivagateTo...() lambda function to the @composable screen and check the state in the @composable screen (when uistate is Success, navigateTo...()) - sol 2 : pass a lambda function to the view model and call it from there - sol 3 : the third and best solution Any idea to achieve that properly?

    I'm about to ask the same thing. This approach (demonstrated in the video) is for when all of the screens have the same screen theme (top bar, bottom nav bar), but -as an example- if the authentication feature doesn't have a bottom nav bar or a top bar and the main feature screen has a top bar or bottom nav bar, it would be difficult to control it using this approach. According to my experience, one possible solution is to consider the main activity as a shell, and make the navbar visible state a global state that can be controlled each time the user navigates to a specific screen, so that whenever the user navigates to a screen that doesn't require the bottom nav bar, the visibility state is changed to false. We'd appreciate it if you could emphasize the best practices for handling such case.

    I use a different approach when I want to use a shared view model and have no more than two screens. 1. Create an enum class and a compose mutableState variable using that enum. Dont forget to wrap it in remember block. 2. Declare a when condition passing in that variable and calling your screen composables based on the changing value of the state variable. 3. Change the state in callback lambdas on however you want to navigate through screens. Edit:- 4. You can use BackHandler composable to redirect system Back button callback to your Composables callback lambdas.
