I read some kotlin project samples code, I find many author like to Code A.
I think Code B is more simpler.
1: Is Code B good way?
2: Can I always use private set intead of private val in Android Studio?
Code A
private val _uiState = MutableStateFlow(InterestsUiState(loading = true))
val uiState: StateFlow<InterestsUiState> = _uiState.asStateFlow()
Code B
var uiState = MutableStateFlow(InterestsUiState(loading = true))
private set
A, B are not the same code.
In code A, define another variable as StateFlow is preventing to change value in StateFlow from out of class.
In code B, you can update value in StateFlow from out of class.
Because you can refer MutableStateFlow.
Mutating state variable itself and Mutating state in StateFlow is different.
Observer observing StateFlow is received event when value in StateFlow is change but change StateFlow itself.
In other word, you should use code A for prevent to unexpected mutating from outer
