Add a ViewModel to Dessert Clicker: Android Basics in Compose

[ahmdharyz]

Instead of below to add dependencies for ViewModel

   ext {
       ...
       lifecycle_version = '2.5.1'
   }
}

dependencies {
    ...implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-compose:$lifecycle_version"
}

It should be:

dependencies {
// other dependencies

    implementation("androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-compose:2.6.1")
//...
}

[cdwcgt]

add

buildscript {
    ...
    extra["lifecycle_version"] = "2.5.1"
}

to build.gradle.kts in project root

then add

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation("androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-compose:${rootProject.extra["lifecycle_version"]}")
}

to build.gradle.kts in ./app/
