### Basic SwitchPreference Usage in Jetpack Compose

Source: https://github.com/zhanghai/composepreference/blob/master/README.md

This example demonstrates the basic usage of a SwitchPreference within a Jetpack Compose application. It requires wrapping the preferences with `ProvidePreferenceLocals` and placing them inside a `LazyColumn`. The `switchPreference` helper function simplifies the setup, automatically handling key management.

```kotlin
AppTheme {
    ProvidePreferenceLocals {
        // Other composables wrapping the LazyColumn ...
        LazyColumn(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
            switchPreference(
                key = "switch_preference",
                defaultValue = false,
                title = { Text(text = "Switch preference") },
                icon = { Icon(imageVector = Icons.Outlined.Info, contentDescription = null) },
                summary = { Text(text = if (it) "On" else "Off") }
            )
        }
    }
}
```

### Basic Setup - ProvidePreferenceLocals in Kotlin

Source: https://context7.com/zhanghai/composepreference/llms.txt

Initializes the preference system with a data source and theme, providing context for all preference composables within its scope. It requires Jetpack Compose dependencies and the compose-preference library. The function accepts optional flow and theme parameters.

```kotlin
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.fillMaxSize
import androidx.compose.foundation.lazy.LazyColumn
import androidx.compose.material3.Text
import androidx.compose.runtime.Composable
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import me.zhanghai.compose.preference.*

@Composable
fun SettingsScreen() {
    AppTheme {
        ProvidePreferenceLocals(
            flow = createDefaultPreferenceFlow(), // Optional: defaults to SharedPreferences
            theme = preferenceTheme() // Optional: customize appearance
        ) {
            LazyColumn(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
                // Add preferences here
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Slider Preference in Kotlin

Source: https://context7.com/zhanghai/composepreference/llms.txt

Provides a preference with a slider for selecting numeric values. Supports continuous or stepped sliders within a defined range. The slider's current value is displayed to the user, formatted as a percentage in this example.

```kotlin
import kotlin.math.roundToInt

LazyColumn {
    sliderPreference(
        key = "volume",
        defaultValue = 0.5f,
        title = { Text(text = "Volume") },
        valueRange = 0f..1f,
        valueSteps = 9, // Creates 10 discrete steps
        summary = { value -> Text(text = "Adjust audio volume") },
        valueText = { value ->
            Text(text = "${(value * 100).roundToInt()}%")
        }
    )
}
```

### Integrate AndroidX DataStore with Compose Preference

Source: https://context7.com/zhanghai/composepreference/llms.txt

This Kotlin code demonstrates integrating AndroidX DataStore as a custom preferences backend for Compose Preference. It includes an adapter class `DataStorePreferencesAdapter` to bridge DataStore's `Preferences` with the `Preferences` interface expected by Compose Preference. The `DataStoreBackedPreferences` composable shows how to provide this custom data source using `ProvidePreferenceLocals`.

```kotlin
import kotlinx.coroutines.flow.MutableStateFlow
import me.zhanghai.compose.preference.*

class DataStorePreferencesAdapter(
    private val preferences: androidx.datastore.preferences.core.Preferences
) : Preferences {
    override fun <T> get(key: String): T? {
        // Implement custom retrieval logic
        return preferences[androidx.datastore.preferences.core.stringPreferencesKey(key)] as? T
    }

    override fun asMap(): Map<String, Any> {
        return preferences.asMap().mapKeys { it.key.name }
    }

    override fun toMutablePreferences(): MutablePreferences {
        return MutableMapPreferences(asMap().toMutableMap())
    }
}

@Composable
fun DataStoreBackedPreferences() {
    val dataStoreFlow: MutableStateFlow<Preferences> = // Create from DataStore

    ProvidePreferenceLocals(flow = dataStoreFlow) {
        LazyColumn {
            switchPreference(
                key = "setting",
                defaultValue = false,
                title = { Text("DataStore-backed setting") }
            )
        }
    }
}
```

### Custom Theme Configuration for Preferences in Kotlin

Source: https://context7.com/zhanghai/composepreference/llms.txt

Demonstrates how to customize the appearance of all preferences within a composable scope by providing a custom `PreferenceTheme`. This allows control over padding, spacing, colors, and typography.

```kotlin
import androidx.compose.material3.MaterialTheme
import androidx.compose.ui.unit.dp

@Composable
fun CustomThemedSettings() {
    val customTheme = preferenceTheme(
        padding = PaddingValues(horizontal = 20.dp, vertical = 12.dp),
        horizontalSpacing = 20.dp,
        iconColor = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.primary,
        titleColor = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.onSurface,
        titleTextStyle = MaterialTheme.typography.titleMedium,
        summaryColor = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.onSurfaceVariant,
        disabledOpacity = 0.5f
    )

    ProvidePreferenceLocals(theme = customTheme) {
        LazyColumn {
            switchPreference(
                key = "example",
                defaultValue = false,
                title = { Text("Custom styled preference") }
            )
        }
    }
}
```

### Direct State Management for Preferences in Kotlin

Source: https://context7.com/zhanghai/composepreference/llms.txt

Shows how to use `MutableState` directly to manage preference state without relying on persistent storage. This is useful for temporary states or when integrating with existing state management solutions.

```kotlin
import androidx.compose.runtime.*
import me.zhanghai.compose.preference.SwitchPreference

@Composable
fun ManualStateExample() {
    val darkModeState = remember { mutableStateOf(false) }

    // Apply theme change immediately
    LaunchedEffect(darkModeState.value) {
        applyTheme(darkModeState.value)
    }

    SwitchPreference(
        state = darkModeState,
        title = { Text("Dark mode") },
        summary = { Text(if (darkModeState.value) "On" else "Off") }
    )
}
```
