Error inflating Text Input Layout even though MaterialComponent style is used

I am trying to use TextInputLayout from Materials Components. Even tho my style is like this:
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.DarkActionBar", I am getting an error.
I have looked through all the similar questions on web(including stack overflow). All of them suggest to change the theme from appCompat to materialComponents, but i have already done that.
This the part of the XML that causes the error
(line 34) <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
android:id="#+id/til_title"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">
error itself:
Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #34 in com.example.happyplaces:layout/activity_add_happy_place: Binary XML file line #34 in com.example.happyplaces:layout/activity_add_happy_place: Error inflating class com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
i have materialcomponents dependency in the build file:
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.7.0-alpha03'

i cant find out what causes the error here. Any help would be very appreciated.

The problem is I was still using AppCompat library for another style. That was the cause. It took me one day to figure out.

Error inflating class androidx.fragment.app.FragmentContainerView

I updated navigation component to 2.3.2 version.
In the 2.3.1 version work normally
I was going through the documentation and I did not find anything about the error or about any update in the component

I was facing the same problem and I figured out that Android studio is not adding name tags in navigation graph. So, adding name tag in navigation graph xml worked for me.
In nav_graph.xml
<fragment
android:id="#+id/loginFragment"
android:name="com.example.MyApp.fragments.LoginFragment"
android:label="fragment_login"
tools:layout="#layout/fragment_login">
Or if you are not sure then switch to the design and in attributes tab on right side select the class name from drop-down list

If you're using Jetpack Compose change MainActivity extends to AppCompatActivity instead of CompatActivity

First make sure you have added ID to your nav graph and fragment container view. Also check fragment (declared asstart destination) does not have any instantiation issue.

When using Koin, adding android:name=".MyApplication" in application in the manifest, fixed this error and the "Accessing hidden method" warnings that were appearing before the error

i am facing below error when trying to run the app that "App is keep stopping" how to resolve this?

What is provideLayout()?.let { setContentView(it) }?

So I would like to learn more about cameraX, the relatively new addition to the Android Jetpack library. I've been looking at an existing project on GitHub to help me understand how to set things up. However the issue is that i'm new to kotlin (project is in kotlin).
In the project: Project
there exists something called "it"
Can be seen here: Example
More specifically in the following line:
provideLayout()?.let { setContentView(it) }
"it" is repeated multiple times throughout the project as well. I just want to know what this is. Is "it" a variable? Is "it" Kotlin specific code?
Additionally, what is:
provideLayout()?.let
How does this work? What does it do?

Is "it" a variable?
it is a parameter passed into the lambda expression.
Taking this piece by piece...
provideLayout() is a function, returning an object.
?. is a "safe call", meaning that if the object is null, we skip the call
?.let() is a particular usage of a safe call that says "execute this lambda expression if the object is not null, and pass that object in as a parameter; if the object is null, though, skip it and let's just go have lunch"
{ setContentView(it) } is a lambda expression that is called by let() if the object returned by provideLayout() is not null, and that object is referred to in the lambda expression as it (where it is the default name of the lambda parameter, since we did not provide another name)
If we knew that provideLayout() would never return null, or if setContentView() could support null, this could be simplified as:
setContentView(provideLayout())

Also I tried the solutuin mention in this answer Android 10 Activity onCreate Crash by adding these dependencies to my project
// Annotation processor
annotationProcessor "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-compiler:2.2.0-alpha05"
// alternately - if using Java8, use the following instead of lifecycle-compiler
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-common-java8:2.2.0-alpha05"
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-runtime:2.2.0-alpha05"
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-process:2.2.0-alpha05"
implementation "androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-service:2.2.0-alpha05"
but it didn't help.

Looking into the crash logs:
Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #17 in com.aia.portercustomer:layout/abc_screen_simple: Error inflating class androidx.appcompat.widget.FitWindowsLinearLayout
In your app.gradle, add the following:
implementation 'io.github.inflationx:calligraphy3:3.1.1'
implementation 'io.github.inflationx:viewpump:2.0.3'
