Explain Recomposition in Jetpack Compose
Tests your grasp of Compose's declarative model. A good answer defines recomposition, explains state-read triggers, and details how stability and positional memoization enable skipping. A red flag is assuming any state change redraws the entire UI.
This question tests your deep understanding of Compose's declarative rendering model, not just a definition. A strong answer defines recomposition as re-executing composables, explains it's triggered by updating `State` objects read by that function, and details the two key optimizations: skipping stable/unchanged composables and positional memoization. A major red flag is describing recomposition as a full UI redraw, which misses the entire point of Compose's efficiency.
