This article chronicles the journey of adopting Jetpack Compose, highlighting the evolution from traditional Android UI development to embracing the UiState and UiEvent patterns. It details the challenges of managing complex UI state and handling user interactions, advocating for the use of UiState to encapsulate UI data in a thread-safe manner within MutableStateFlow, and UiEvent to streamline the dispatch of user actions from the UI to the ViewModel. Ultimately, the article argues that these patterns lead to cleaner, more maintainable, and flexible Compose code, especially in applications with numerous UI properties and asynchronous operations.
