ComposableScreen

Render Jetpack Compose content onto the custom map surface of an AndroidX Car App Screen — for both Android Auto and Android Automotive OS.

The Car App library hands your app a raw Surface for the map area but no view system on top of it. ComposableScreen hosts that surface on a virtual display and presents a ComposeView into it, so you can write your map/overlay UI as ordinary @Composable functions while still returning a normal Car App Template for the rest of the screen.
