Overview

A published GitHub Skill that guides AI assistants when building or reviewing Wear OS apps. Covers glanceable UI, battery-aware behavior, lifecycle correctness, and the modern Android stack: Kotlin, Compose for Wear OS, MVVM, Room/DataStore, Tiles, and Complications.

Goal & Motivation

Provide consistent, wearable-first guidance so that Wear OS projects get fast, glanceable UIs, proper lifecycle handling, and review checklists, whether authored by humans or AI-assisted tooling.

Corporate Relevance

Wearables and companion apps are increasingly part of product roadmaps in health, fitness, and enterprise. This skill codifies patterns for small-screen UX, background limits, and state restoration that apply to any watch or constrained-device product.
