[After 2 years of iterations](https://github.com/composablehorizons/compose-unstyled/commit/08e4fe192a0e61fb8839b94db1e02213df2491f4)
on Compose Unstyled, a brand new Compose library is born: **[Composables UI](https://composables.com/ui.md)**.

**Composables UI is a ready-to-use, fully-accessible component library for Compose Multiplatform.**

## Components for every platform

Composables UI is designed to work out of the box on every platform you build apps for.

Components **adapt automatically to the device's capabilities**.

**Try the live demo below** and see how buttons adapt to Touch and Mouse based devices:

## Beautiful defaults

Composables UI comes with thoughtful defaults for the states your components need every day.

Focus states are handled for you, with clear focus rings for keyboard and desktop use, while touch interactions keep
their ripple feedback.

Disabled states are also designed in from the start, so components feel consistent and intentional across platforms
without extra work from your side.

Every component has consistent styling through the [Theming system](https://composables.com/ui/docs/theming.md). Thanks to that, Composables UI
ships with dark mode since day one.

## Make it yours

Composables UI is designed to be modified.

You can use it in two ways: add it as a single Gradle dependency, or copy the source code of individual components
directly from the documentation.

That means you can start fast, then take full control whenever your product needs something more specific. Need to
customize a bottom sheet beyond the library API? Head over to the [Bottom Sheets](https://composables.com/ui/docs/bottom-sheet.md) docs, copy the
component into your project, and shape it around your own design system.

Over time, Composables UI can stay as your component library, or fade into the background as your own design language
takes over.

## Powered by Compose Unstyled

[Compose Unstyled](https://composeunstyled.com) recently reached 2.0 with the goal of becoming the API to build component
libraries and design system for Jetpack Compose and Compose Multiplatform.

Composables UI was the perfect playground to put Compose Unstyled to the test.

Building app-facing components helped shape Compose Unstyled itself and stress-test its APIs in practice.

Thanks to the development of Composables UI, Compose Unstyled got a few upgrades:

- **Tooltips** now have a new flexible positioning API with anchors and placements.
- **Portals** is a new utility composable that allows you to render composables within the same composition tree. Handy
  for non-modal tooltips, snackbars, toasts and more.
- Added new `extend {}` API in Themes, that allow you to create themes with predefined Composition Locals.
- Polish the API of various components, to make them easier to extend in your design system.
- Added a new Breakpoint API for building apps for tablets and desktops.

and a bunch more.

Now that Composables UI exists, I can finally support more opinionated components that you have asked in the past such
as cards, list items, date pickers, forms and more.

Compose Unstyled will continue to receive updates and will remain the base from which component libraries are build.
