I've tried to use room but I can't even add its dependency to my project. When I add these lines (which are on the official tutorial: https://developer.android.com/codelabs/basic-android-kotlin-compose-persisting-data-room?hl=fr#3
//Room
implementation("androidx.room:room-runtime:${rootProject.extra["room_version"]}")
ksp("androidx.room:room-compiler:${rootProject.extra["room_version"]}")
implementation("androidx.room:room-ktx:${rootProject.extra["room_version"]}")
I get this error when launching the app:
Execution failed for task ':app:kspDebugKotlin'.
> 'compileDebugJavaWithJavac' task (current target is 1.8) and 'kspDebugKotlin' task (current target is 17) jvm target compatibility should be set to the same Java version.

Is it maybe a problem with ksp ? I have never used it so I did like on this page : https://developer.android.com/build/migrate-to-ksp#add-ksp
Removing the 3 dependency lines get rid of the error so it comes from them. Is there a way to solve this ? Or maybe another way of implementing room ?
Indeed! the problem comes from KSP because its still new, templates from android studio don't support it out of the box, instead you have to make some changes in your gradle files:
id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.9.0' apply false
id 'com.google.devtools.ksp' version '1.9.0-1.0.13' apply false
id ("com.google.devtools.ksp")
and finally I'm pretty sure you need a jvm target of at least 18.
