## What it is
Accompanist is a collection of extension libraries for Jetpack Compose that fill gaps in the official Compose toolkit, such as runtime permissions, drawable painters, and adaptive layout utilities. It acts as a labs environment for experimental Compose APIs that are eventually upstreamed into AndroidX and deprecated here.

## Use cases
- request android runtime permissions from jetpack compose
- use android drawables as compose painters
- build adaptive layouts for phones tablets and foldables
- experiment with new compose apis before they land in androidx
- supplement jetpack compose with missing features

## When to choose
- you need a compose feature not yet available in the official toolkit
- you want runtime permission handling in a compose app
- you are building an android app with jetpack compose and need adaptive layout utilities

## When to avoid
- the feature has already been upstreamed into androidx compose
- you are not using jetpack compose
- you need long-term stable APIs since accompanist libraries are deprecated once upstreamed
