Thanks for your perspective @qrezet . I'm definitely keeping my eye on Compose, and as I mentioned in the original question, I really enjoy the syntax a lot more than Flutter.

For someone that has zero knowledge in Android development, and wants to use either of these technologies for desktop development of mostly simple apps, the barrier just feels a lot higher with Compose right now. There are less resources, and what seems like more hurdles as Compose for Desktop appears to have a slightly different API to Compose for Android.

If there was a beginner book for Compose for Desktop, I'd be all over that in a heartbeat!
