This page describes how to set up your development environment to use Glance.
Add Glance dependencies
Add the specific Glance dependency in your app's module based on the features you need:
dependencies {
// For AppWidgets support
implementation( "androidx.glance:glance-appwidget:1.0.0" )
// For interop APIs with Material 2
implementation( "androidx.glance:glance-material:1.0.0" )
// For interop APIs with Material 3
implementation( "androidx.glance:glance-material3:1.0.0" )
}
Activate Compose Compiler

android {
buildFeatures {
compose true
}
composeOptions {
kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion = "1.5.13"
}
kotlinOptions {
