Circuit is a Compose-driven architecture framework for Kotlin applications, primarily targeting Android. It pairs Compose-based Presenters and UIs that communicate only through state and events, following unidirectional data flow (UDF/MVI) principles.

Use cases

• structure an Android app with MVI architecture in Jetpack Compose
• separate presenters from UIs using unidirectional data flow
• manage app screens with a Compose-first presenter pattern
• build Kotlin apps using the Compose runtime for state management
• replace MVVM with a UDF architecture in Compose
• implement nested and composite screens in a Compose app

When to choose

• you are building an Android app with Jetpack Compose and want a proven UDF/MVI architecture
• you want presenter/UI separation backed by the Compose runtime
• you value a framework used in production at Slack

When to avoid

• you are not using Kotlin or Jetpack Compose
• you prefer XML views or non-Compose Android architectures
• you need an iOS-first or non-JVM framework
