Getting Started With Compose for Web

The API is experimental, and breaking changes can be expected

Introduction

In this tutorial, we will create a simple web UI application using the Compose UI framework.

Prerequisites

You need to have the following software installed before you begin:

JDK 11 or later
IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition or Ultimate Edition 2020.2 or later (you can use other editors, but for this tutorial we assume you are using IntelliJ IDEA)

Creating a new project

If you don't want to create the project manually, you can download the example here

The project wizard doesn't support Compose for web projects yet, so we need to perform the following steps:

1. Create a Kotlin Multiplatform project:

Select Gradle on the left menu
Tick Kotlin DSL build script
Tick Kotlin/Multiplatform

2. Update `settings.gradle.kts`:

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
        gradlePluginPortal()
        maven("https://maven.pkg.jetbrains.space/public/p/compose/dev")
    }
}

3. Update `build.gradle.kts`:

// Add compose gradle plugin
plugins {
    kotlin("multiplatform") version "1.4.32"
    id("org.jetbrains.compose") version "0.0.0-web-dev-11"
}

// Add maven repositories
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven("https://maven.pkg.jetbrains.space/public/p/compose/dev")
}

// Enable JS(IR) target and add dependencies
kotlin {
    js(IR) {
        browser()
        binaries.executable()
    }
    sourceSets {
        val jsMain by getting {
            dependencies {
                implementation(compose.web.web)
                implementation(compose.runtime)
            }
        }
    }
}

5. Add the following directories to the project:

src/jsMain/kotlin
src/jsMain/resources

6. Add the `index.html` file to the `resources`:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Sample</title>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="root"></div>
  <script src="REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_MODULE_NAME.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

7. Add the `Main.kt` file:

fun main() {
    var count: Int by mutableStateOf(0)

    renderComposable(rootElementId = "root") {
        Div(style = { padding(25.px) }) {
            Button(attrs = {
                onClick { count = count - 1 }
            }) {
                Text("-")
            }

            Span(style = { padding(15.px) }) {
                Text("${count}")
            }


            Button(attrs = {
                onClick { count = count + 1 }
            }) {
                Text("+")
            }
        }
    }
}

Running the project

Use the command line to run:

./gradlew jsBrowserRun

Or run it from the IDE:

The browser will open localhost:8080:
