# Jetpack Compose 1.0 - Beauty in Simplicity

**[Touchlab](https://daily.dev/sources/touchlab)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Jetpack Compose 1.0 has reached stable release, marking a shift from imperative to declarative UI development for Android. Built entirely in Kotlin, it eliminates the need for XML layout files, reduces boilerplate code, and lowers the learning curve for new developers. The post covers adoption strategies (incremental adoption, new-feature-only adoption, faster development cycles), the synergy between Jetpack Compose and Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM), and short- and long-term multiplatform prospects. Touchlab also announces that their KaMP Kit now uses Jetpack Compose 1.0 as the default UI toolkit.
