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

@OptIn(ExperimentalMaterial3Api::class)
@Composable
fun PlainHint(text: String, content: @Composable () -> Unit) {
    TooltipBox(
        positionProvider = TooltipDefaults.rememberPlainTooltipPositionProvider(),
        tooltip = { PlainTooltip { Text(text) } },
        state = rememberTooltipState(),
    ) {
        content()
    }
}
