What's your approach to Android support? Are you relying on mutation events, `beforeinput`, something else?

I built a really solid android adapter (after spilling gallons of tears) for our Draft.JS fork, and might have a few tips if it's helpful.

We listen to a few typing related events and do some computation from here: keydown, input, beforeinput. Android, contrary to any other device, mostly relies on composition so Lexical makes sure to handle and flush these events accordingly.
