FAB dock bar

A bottom bar split around a raised center action button for the primary task.

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 FabDockBar() {
    Box(contentAlignment = Alignment.TopCenter) {
        NavigationBar {
            NavigationBarItem(true, {},
                icon = { Icon(Icons.Filled.Home, "Home") })
            NavigationBarItem(false, {},
                icon = { Icon(Icons.Filled.Search, "Search") })
            NavigationBarItem(false, {}, icon = { Spacer(Modifier.size(24.dp)) },
                enabled = false)
            NavigationBarItem(false, {},
                icon = { Icon(Icons.Filled.FavoriteBorder, "Saved") })

        }
        FloatingActionButton(
            onClick = {},
            modifier = Modifier.offset(y = (-24).dp),
