KARL Compose UI

The KARL Compose UI module provides modern, Material Design-compliant user interface components for visualizing and interacting with KARL AI containers. Built with Jetpack Compose, it offers reactive, performant UI components that integrate seamlessly with KARL's learning system.

Key Features

Component Architecture

Reactive UI: Built on Compose StateFlows for real-time updates
Material Design: Follows Material Design 3 guidelines and theming
Accessibility: Implements proper semantics and navigation support
Performance: Optimized for smooth animations and minimal recomposition

Integration Patterns

MVVM/MVI Ready: Connects to KARL containers through StateFlow observables
Dependency Injection: Supports DI frameworks and testability
Compose Native: Seamless integration with existing Compose applications
Customizable Theming: Full Material Theme support with customization

Core Components

Primary Components

KarlContainerUI - Main container visualization component
KarlLearningProgressIndicator - Learning progress visualization
Additional UI utilities and helper components

Preview System

KarlUIPreviews - Comprehensive preview definitions for development
Desktop Previews: IDE-integrated visual development tools
State Simulation: Mock data for testing different component states

Design Philosophy

User Experience

Transparency: Clear visualization of AI learning progress
Trust Building: Users can see how the AI system is learning
Non-Intrusive: Subtle integration that enhances rather than disrupts workflow
Real-Time Feedback: Immediate updates as learning progresses

Developer Experience

Easy Integration: Simple API for adding KARL visualization to apps
Customizable: Extensive theming and layout customization options
Well Documented: Comprehensive KDoc with usage examples
Preview Support: Rich preview system for rapid development

Advanced Features

Adaptive Layouts: Responsive design for different screen sizes
Animation Support: Smooth transitions and state changes
Error States: Graceful handling of error conditions
Loading States: Proper loading indicators and skeleton screens

Dependencies

Usage

@Composable
fun MyApp() {
    KarlContainerUI(
        containerState = karlContainer.state.collectAsState(),
        predictions = karlContainer.predictions.collectAsState(),
        onInteraction = { /* handle user interaction */ }
    )
}

This module brings beautiful, functional AI visualization to KARL applications with modern Compose UI.
