Molecule is a Kotlin library from Cash App that lets you build StateFlow or Flow streams using Jetpack Compose's runtime, without its UI toolkit. It enables writing presenter logic as composable functions that emit reactive state streams.

Use cases

  • build a StateFlow from composable state logic
  • separate business logic from UI in Android apps
  • write presenters using Jetpack Compose runtime
  • test presenter logic without UI layer
  • share reactive state logic across Kotlin multiplatform targets

When to choose

  • you use Kotlin coroutines Flow and want declarative state logic
  • you want to test business logic separately from Compose UI
  • you're building MVI-style presenters in Kotlin Multiplatform

When to avoid

  • you don't use Kotlin or coroutines
  • you want full Compose UI rendering rather than headless state streams
