To display a text with Jetpack Compose, use the Text
composable function. Specify the string you want to display as an argument.
@Composable
fun Greeting(name: String) {
Text(text = "Hello $name!")
}
use string resources
To support multiple languages, it is good to use string resoucrs.
We use stringResource()
in Jetpack Compose. Argument is a string resource ID like getString()
.
@Composable
fun AppName() {
Text(text = stringResource(id = R.string.app_name))
}
If string resource has a placeholder like %1$s
, you can pass a placeholder value like getString()
.
@Composable
fun Greeting(name: String) {
Text(text = stringResource(id = R.string.hello, name))
}
