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

var bio by remember { mutableStateOf("") }
val max = 160
Column {

        value = bio,
        onValueChange = { if (it.length <= max) bio = it },
        label = { Text("Bio") },
        minLines = 3,
        supportingText = {
            Row(Modifier.fillMaxWidth()) {
                Text("Tell people about yourself")
                Spacer(Modifier.weight(1f))
