As Jetpack Compose gains popularity for developing Android apps, it's crucial to ensure that apps built with it are reliable and bug-free. At Sentry, we've been working on making it easier for developers to monitor their apps by providing automatic instrumentation for capturing user interactions and navigation breadcrumbs.

In this talk, we'll discuss our journey of adding automatic instrumentation to the open-source Sentry Android SDK for Jetpack Compose and share best practices for capturing and analyzing user interactions and navigation events.

We’ll dive into

- Global Android system hooks
- Jetpack Compose internals
- Accessing Compose internals from Java and why
- A bit of Bytecode Manipulation
- Kotlin Compiler Plugins
