```kotlin
val LocalGraphicsContext =
staticCompositionLocalOf<GraphicsContext> { noLocalProvidedFor("LocalGraphicsContext") }
```


The CompositionLocal to provide access to a `GraphicsContext` instance for creation of
`GraphicsLayer`s.

Consumers that access this Local directly and call `GraphicsContext.createGraphicsLayer` are
responsible for calling `GraphicsContext.releaseGraphicsLayer`.

It is recommended that consumers invoke `rememberGraphicsLayer` instead to ensure that a `GraphicsLayer` is
released when the corresponding composable is disposed.
