LazyList Padding in Jetpack Compose

Source of info

In Jetpack Compose, while using LazyLists like LazyColumn or LazyRow . We may need to specify padding for various designs.

Padding for each item in the layout

We use Modifier in each item composable to specify padding for each individual item (lines 11–13).

Padding for the whole layout

Padding for the layout is achieved using Modifier on the LazyRow / LazyColumn (line 6).

In this, we can see that the padding at top and bottom will not change when we scroll the list.
But, in some cases we may need the padding to be shown only when we scroll to the bottom or stay at the top. The padding when the list is scrolled might not be the expected UI.

Padding for content

Padding only for content can be achieved like this using contentPadding parameter.

Please comment with your valuable feedback. It would help me to improvise.
