## What it is
A Compose Multiplatform library that renders a customizable Liquid Glass effect by drawing a copy of the background (backdrop) into the foreground with various effects. It provides low-level primitives rather than ready-made components, with example components like LiquidButton and LiquidSlider in the demo catalog.

## Use cases
- add liquid glass effect to a Compose Multiplatform app
- build iOS 26-style glassmorphism UI in Kotlin
- create a glass bottom bar or bottom sheet in Compose
- apply backdrop blur and refraction effects behind UI components
- make liquid glass buttons, toggles, and sliders in Jetpack Compose

## When to choose
- you use Compose Multiplatform or Jetpack Compose and want the liquid glass aesthetic
- you need low-level backdrop effect primitives to build your own glass components
- you want a maintained, Apache-2.0 licensed effect library published on Maven Central

## When to avoid
- you need prebuilt high-level glass components out of the box
- your project does not use Compose (e.g., native Views, Flutter, React Native)
- you target platforms outside Compose Multiplatform's supported targets

## Facets
