Installation

caveui components are copy-paste Jetpack Compose built entirely on Material 3 — there's no caveui dependency to add. Make sure Material 3 is on your classpath (it ships with the Compose BOM), then copy the Usage snippet below into your project.

kotlin

// build.gradle.kts (module)
dependencies {
    implementation(platform("androidx.compose:compose-bom:2025.06.00"))
    implementation("androidx.compose.material3:material3")
}

Usage

kotlin

@Composable
fun CommandTrigger(onOpen: () -> Unit) {
    Surface(
        onClick = onOpen,
        shape = CircleShape,
        color = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.surfaceVariant,
        border = BorderStroke(1.dp, MaterialTheme.colorScheme.outlineVariant),
    ) {
        Row(
            Modifier.padding(start = 14.dp, end = 8.dp, top = 8.dp, bottom = 8.dp),
            verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically,
        ) {
            Icon(Icons.Filled.Search, null, Modifier.size(16.dp),
                tint = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.onSurfaceVariant)
            Spacer(Modifier.width(8.dp))
            Text("Search", Modifier.weight(1f),
                color = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.onSurfaceVariant,
                style = MaterialTheme.typography.bodyMedium)
            Spacer(Modifier.width(24.dp))
            Surface(color = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.surface,
                shape = RoundedCornerShape(6.dp)) {
                Text("⌘K", Modifier.padding(horizontal = 6.dp, vertical = 2.dp),
                    style = MaterialTheme.typography.labelSmall)
