# Compose Multiplatform Patterns
Patterns for building shared UI across Android, iOS, Desktop, and Web using Compose Multiplatform and Jetpack Compose. Covers state management, navigation, theming, and performance.
## When to Activate
- Building Compose UI (Jetpack Compose or Compose Multiplatform)
- Managing UI state with ViewModels and Compose state
- Implementing navigation in KMP or Android projects
- Designing reusable composables and design systems
- Optimizing recomposition and rendering performance
## State Management
### ViewModel + Single State Object
Use a single data class for screen state. Expose it as `StateFlow` and collect in Compose:
```kotlin
data class ItemListState(
val items: List<Item> = emptyList(),
val isLoading: Boolean = false,
val error: String? = null,
val searchQuery: String = ""
)
class ItemListViewModel(
private val getItems: GetItemsUseCase
) : ViewModel() {
private val _state = MutableStateFlow(ItemListState())
val state: StateFlow<ItemListState> = _state.asStateFlow()
fun onSearch(query: String) {
_state.update { it.copy(searchQuery = query) }
loadItems(query)
}
private fun loadItems(query: String) {
viewModelScope.launch {
_state.update { it.copy(isLoading = true) }
getItems(query).fold(
onSuccess = { items -> _state.update { it.copy(items = items, isLoading = false) } },
onFailure = { e -> _state.update { it.copy
