Android Navigation (Jetpack Compose)

Priority: P2 (OPTIONAL)

Navigation and deep linking using Jetpack Compose Navigation.

Guidelines

• Library: Use androidx.navigation:navigation-compose.
• Type Safety: Use sealed classes for routes, never raw strings.
• Deep Links: Configure intent-filter in Manifest and deepLinks in NavHost.
• Validation: Validate arguments (e.g., proper IDs) before loading content.

Patterns & Examples

Anti-Patterns

• No String Routes: Use Screen.Product.route instead of "product/$id".
• No Unvalidated Deep Links: Check resource existence before rendering.
• No Missing Manifest: Deep links require autoVerify=true intent filters.
