Talks
What's new in Compose? - Nick Butcher
At Google I/O 2026, we officially declared a "Compose First" standard for Android development, transitioning the View system into maintenance mode. Jetpack Compose is the recommended framework for all new UI, delivering native performance, significant productivity gains, and the most efficient path to building adaptive apps. This session will talk about the latest changes in Compose.

Making Modifiers Meet the Mark - Louis Pullen-Freilich
This session explores the evolution of modifiers in Jetpack Compose, the inception of Modifier.Node, and a massive team effort to rewrite core modifiers. Learn how we successfully improved performance across the framework without breaking the critical public APIs relied upon by every app.
