Talks

Make your own charts with Jetpack Compose Custom Layouts & Graphics 

Gozde Kaval and Neha Garg - Android devs @ Volvo Cars

In this talk, we will explore how to create a bar chart fully written in Jetpack Compose using custom layouts and graphics. Rather than relying on traditional Java libraries, we will leverage the full power of Jetpack Compose to create dynamic and customizable visualizations in our Android apps.

Fully custom design system using Jetpack Compose

Ehsan Mehranvari - Android Dev @ Volvo Cars

The Material design language system and Material components are part of Jetpack Compose. It follows Google Material guidelines and styles out of the box. In most cases, the developers, do not need to care about anything else but putting those components and Material themes together to create a beautiful UI. But what if we want to go a different way and create our own Design Language System instead of Material? Is that even possible? In this talk, we are going to see how it can be done and how we can take it to the next level by adding icons and assets repositories and keeping it as aligned as possible with our organization design guides, Also we will share with you what we have learned during our journey at Volvo Cars.
