Developing with Compose Previews

Agent skill
1 skill

Use this skill to make @Preview functions the primary feedback loop for Jetpack Compose UI work — preview-driven development. Covers hoisting state out of composables so a preview never needs a ViewModel or DI graph, LocalInspectionMode for conditional preview rendering (e.g. placeholder instead of Coil/Glide), @PreviewParameter + PreviewParameterProvider for rendering every UI state side by side, multi-configuration previews (uiMode, fontScale, device, widthDp, locale), @Preview-annotated annotation classes for reusable preview sets, and the anti-patterns that make previews rot (screen-level previews, unwrapped theme, zero-width fillMaxWidth previews, Lorem-ipsum data). Use when the user mentions "preview won't render", "preview needs a ViewModel", "@PreviewParameter", "LocalInspectionMode", "preview out of date", "preview-driven development", "previews keep breaking", or "how to structure Compose previews".
