In September 2025, I completed a comprehensive global dependency upgrade across android/compose-samples and all associated sample projects (JetLagged, JetNews, Jetchat, Jetsnack, Reply). This involved updating core dependencies to newer stable/alpha/beta versions for Android Material 3, Android Gradle Plugin (AGP), Compose BOM, Kotlin, KSP, and related libraries, as well as core UI and tooling packages (Compose, Navigation, Wear Compose, Window, Maps Compose, Room), Gradle versions, and Spotless. The work was designed to unify baseline versions across projects, improve stability, and enable rapid adoption of upcoming features across the sample suite.
