There's this awesome tool in Compose—Hot Reload—that's always been available to web developers

Thanks to this feature, you can modify the UI in the code without restarting the app and immediately (after pressing Ctrl + S) see the changes in the running app. This has been available on Android for a long time, but now it’s also available in KMP

In the pinned post, you can see an example on Windows—they’ve done a really stylish job with it

If your IntelliJ or Android Studio doesn’t support KMP and doesn’t offer to run the app in Hot Reload mode on its own, you can easily create your own Gradle build with the following parameters: composeApp:desktopRunHot --autoReload --mainClass=ru.normno.hotreloadcmp.MainKt

You can learn more about working with Hot Reload and integrating it into your project on the JetBrains website
