Tried adding the following steps but couldn’t use the third-party UI component in the jetpack,

1. Add maven { url ‘[https://jitpack.io](https://jitpack.io)’ } in build.gradle
2. Add dependency in app.gradle
3. Tried to use the component in UI

I’m having exactly the same issue, did you find a resolution for this? Seems git libraries just don’t work in compose, I have the same setup as you, regarding the maven reference:

```
repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}

```

- What went wrong:  
Execution failed for task ‘:app:mergeDebugNativeLibs’.

> Could not resolve all files for configuration ‘:app:debugRuntimeClasspath’.  
> Could not find com.github.jeziellago:compose-markdown:0.2.6.  
> Searched in the following locations:  
> …  
> Required by:  
> project :app

Looking at the specific reference:

[https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/github/jeziellago/compose-markdown/0.2.6/compose-markdown-0.2.6.pom](https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/github/jeziellago/compose-markdown/0.2.6/compose-markdown-0.2.6.pom)

This gives a 403 forbidden, which is probably the issue

after few days of finding, finally I found the solution. in the settings.gradle file add in

dependencyResolutionManagement {  
repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL\_ON\_PROJECT\_REPOS)  
repositories {  
google()  
mavenCentral()  
**maven { url = uri(“[https://jitpack.io](https://jitpack.io)” ) } ----\> add this if want to use jitpack libraries**  
//jcenter() // Warning: this repository is going to shut down soon  
}  
}  
rootProject.name = “ERPLite”  
include ‘:app’

have fun.
