Proof of concept exploration of how to implement SharedElement transition in Jetpack Compose.
Inspired by Flutter Hero widget.

Transition consists of following animations:

  • Position
  • Scale
  • Crossfade (which makes it work on any kind of element, e.g. Text)
UsersListScreen:
UsersListScreen

UserDetailScreen:
UserDetailScreen
Slowed down transition animation:
TransitionAnimation

Usage

  1. Define FROM and TO elements with shared tag ```kotlin @Composable fun ScreenA() { // ...

    SharedElement(tag = "tag", type = SharedElementType.FROM) {

     Image(image, Modifier.preferredSize(48.dp))
    

    }

    // ... }

@Composable fun ScreenB() { // ...

SharedElement(tag = "tag", type = SharedElementType.TO) {
    Image(image, Modifier.preferredSize(200.dp))
}

// ... }


2. Make `SharedElementsRoot` a common parent of `ScreenA` and `ScreenB`. It doesn't have to be their direct parent.  
```kotlin
SharedElementsRoot {
    // change between ScreenA and ScreenB
}
  1. Transition starts automatically when second SharedElement is detected

Sample

See sample usage with UsersListScreen and UserDetailsScreen here.

Issues

Considering the experimental state of this library and state of Jetpack Compose itself there are some issues described here.
