  • iOS
  • Desktop
• Add a way to use fonts installed on the system (desktop/web in this version, iOS in the next version, Android isn't supported)

Breaking changes

• Text with lineHeight set is trimmed by default
• Text with fontSize set without lineHeight inside MaterialTheme has different line height
• Resource library (compose.components.resources) changes
  • resources from *Main\resources should be moved to *Main\composeResources\drawable, commonMain\composeResources\font or *Main\composeResources\files depending on the resource type
  • painterResource("resource.xml") should be replaced by painterResource(Res.drawable.resource)

Known issues

• compose.components.resources library doesn't work yet if you apply kotlin("jvm") Gradle plugin. For now, it only works with kotlin("multiplatform")
