Could not find androidx.navigation:navigation-compose:

Question

I copied the dependencies mentioned in the website here: https://developer.android.com/guide/navigation/navigation-getting-started#kts to use Navigation Component. However, when i run the project, it says it could not find androidx.navigation:navigation-compose:. I've tried included $nav_version which is = 2.3.5, but the problem remains. Is there anything I missed out?

Navigation Compose was introduced after Navigation 2.3 - you need to use Navigation 2.4 (latest at this time is 2.4.0-rc01):

implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-compose:2.4.0-rc01"
