Design System

Token-driven colour, type, shape and spacing.

UI Components

Compose and XML parity, production ready.

Form Framework

Schema-driven, validated, accessible forms.

AI Architecture

Provider-agnostic AI surfaces and agents.

Quick start

Installed in under a minute

Add the BOM, declare the artifacts you need without versions, wrap your app in SKTheme and start composing.

app/build.gradle.kts
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    // The BOM controls the version of every SKOne artifact below.
    implementation(platform("com.thesubodhgupta.skone:skone-bom:1.4.0-alpha01"))
    implementation("com.thesubodhgupta.skone:skone-common")
    implementation("com.thesubodhgupta.skone:skone-compose")
}
Why SKOne

A framework, not a component dump

SKOne covers the layers Android teams rebuild on every project — tokens, components, forms, and now AI.

One design system, two toolkits

Compose and the View system read the same tokens, so migration is incremental and never visually breaks.

BOM-aligned releases

Every artifact under com.thesubodhgupta.skone is version-locked by skone-bom. Upgrades are one line.

Forms from schema

Describe fields and rules as JSON; SKOne renders validated, focus-managed, accessible forms.

AI as a first-class surface

Streaming, tool calls, retries and loading phases are UI contracts, not app-level glue code.

Accessible by construction

AA contrast, 48dp targets, semantics tests and reduced-motion handling ship with each component.

Enterprise ready

Theming for white-label products, RTL, large font scales and long-lived API stability guarantees.

Architecture

Six layers, one contract

Each layer depends only on the layer beneath it, which is what keeps Compose and XML output identical.

AI Layer

skone-core (AI SPI)

Components

skone-ui / skone-compose / skone-xml

Form Framework

skone-forms

Theme Engine

skone-theme

Core

skone-core / skone-common / skone-plugin

Platform

Android
Dynamic Forms

JSON in. Validated Android UI out.

Describe a form once and SKOne renders it in Compose or XML with validation, masking and typed results.

01

JSON Schema

{
  "form": "onboarding",
  "fields": [
    { "id": "fullName", "type": "text",  "label": "Full name",
      "rules": ["required", "min:3"] },
    { "id": "email",    "type": "email", "label": "Work email",
      "rules": ["required", "email"] },
    { "id": "phone",    "type": "phone", "label": "Phone",
      "mask": "+91 00000 00000" }
  ]
}

Enterprise

Built for the apps nobody demos

Long-lived internal Android apps are mostly forms, tables and approvals. That is exactly what SKOne optimises for.

CRM

Pipelines, activity feeds and dense data entry.

Healthcare

Patient intake forms with strict validation and audit trails.

Finance

Statements, approvals and numeric input with locale formatting.

Logistics

Scanning flows, offline states and status timelines.

Retail

Catalogue browsing, checkout and white-label theming.

Government

Accessibility mandates, RTL and multi-language forms.

Roadmap

Shipping in the open

Milestones map one-to-one to GitHub milestones — nothing here is aspirational marketing.
