Composable is the fundamental building block for building any type of composable function.
In the Flutter, we refer to any UI component as a widget, and here in jetpack compose we refer as compose
The UI is built with the composable and they have the annotation @compose
The annotation @compose will tell the compiler that the contents of the function are a piece of UI that needs to be displayed.

@Composable
private fun HelloScreen(displayText: String) {
  Text(text = displayText)
}

The naming of composable stats with a capital letter, unlike the regular functions.
Reason for this is because the composable are like widgets or components, Thus we give the Capital name.

We can add the composable functions inside the class.
We can add it outside the class and within the file.
They are so much decoupled that, all the widgets in jetpack compose are functions.
We can even define them in a separate class and use them in the current class.
Due to this modularity the composable can be made to run on a desktop application as well that just has kotlin framework.
