yup it's fully KMP/jpcompose and works great on Android and iOS!! But we're always interested in connecting with more KMP people to get help and tips.

I've been losing my mind for the last few evenings trying to figure out how to write a KMP compatible Gzip decompression method
JVM & Android were easy but iOS was driving me crazy with zlib C interop and alloc calls!
TIL it turns out Okio can do it all, in two lines of code 😂

Example of #Koog AI agent in #KMP code running in an iOS #CMP based client. Uses #Gemini LLM here + local Tools that in turn invoke #Ktor based code to get data needed!
Currently in branch of ClimateTraceKMP sample (github.com/joreilly/Cli...) as using local Koog fix for now.

Google has officially endorsed Kotlin Multiplatform as a go-to solution for sharing code across Android & iOS!
Jetpack libs are going multiplatform, Android Studio tooling is improving, and KMP is going mainstream!

next up
- Timeline View instead of simple column with add button between each node
- Use MapKit to query location coords on ios (which is free?) and manually enter on android(maps api is paid fsm).

If you're trying to test your #KMP project on Xcode Beta (version 26), you might encounter a crash in Ktor related to the DarwinSession creation. This appears to be an issue on Apple’s side. As a temporary workaround, you can address it by calling nw_tls_create_options() in your application.

#swiftlang has come a long way and the introduction of swiftly helps a long way for non Apple devs to appreciate the tech. But for iOS the choice that we can only run snapshots on a Mac is catastrophic and has a yearly cost of 100 000 euro for a large news corp. This is will force KMP on us 🥲

A big component of what #KMP/#CMP offers is optionality and, related to that, ability to adopt incrementally. Sharing UI between Android and iOS is not something that will suit all teams/projects but **if** you are sharing UI (or part of) then IMHO CMP is by far the best option.

Switched from Android (Kotlin) to iOS (Swift) as an indie dev. Learned Swift in 3 months, used KMP to share code, found App Store policies fairer, and doubled revenue on iOS.

Why? Who is it for? What's the value over, say, KMP and Compose Multiplatform?
Is it for people that prefer to avoid upskilling learning the already great programming languages that are easily usable on mobile, namely, Kotlin (on Android, iOS, and more), and Swift (not just iOS, see skip.tools)?

Sometimes in #KMP/#CMP apps you have a choice of implementing iOS related code in iosMain in shared code or directly in Swift....I find myself often preferring the latter due to ease of debugging etc

Spicy #AndroidDev take:
To do KMP on Android you need to be good at Kotlin, understand iOS internals, and how KMP does things on iOS.
In a traditionally 50% iOS engs 50% Android team, the talent pool for this is very very small.

i'm totally new (like, a few hours new) to building and packaging a kmp app for iOS, but it seemed to work just fine
and this was while having problems with my icloud account a, probably cuz i use a cloud mac vm
maybe try downloading the certificate (.csr) file locally and using that with Xcode?

KMP brings its own primitive types such as Int, Float into the iOS project. Not sure what would happen if I were to use 5 KMP libraries. Would each of those come with their own primitives?
