Simple Stack is an Android backstack library and navigation framework that represents navigation state as a list of immutable, parcelable keys. It handles navigation history persistence across configuration changes and process death, with scoped state sharing between screens using fragments, views, or composables.
Use cases
- navigate between screens with backstack.goTo() instead of FragmentTransactions
- preserve navigation history across process death and configuration changes
- share scoped data between screens in a single-activity Android app
- implement single-activity navigation with fragments or custom views
- support predictive back gesture with centralized back handling
- replace Jetpack Navigation with a simpler key-based backstack
When to choose
- building Android apps with single-activity architecture
- you want predictable, centralized navigation with immutable state keys
- you need automatic navigation state persistence across process death
- you use fragments, custom views, or Compose and want a navigation-agnostic backstack
When to avoid
- building multi-activity apps with platform navigation
- you prefer Jetpack Navigation's XML/Compose route-based API
- targeting non-Android JVM platforms
