Let me start off saying I\'m still super against hybrid apps (personal reasons), BUT I wanted to give Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) a try. I wanted to see what it would be like to use a shared library across mobile environments. I have been keeping this on the backburner for awhile and I think it\'s time to talk about if this is here to stay. **TLDR: Yes, I think KMM will be here to stay long term** What Sparked this? ------------------ As you know I\'m big into automation and simplifying workflows. That being said I was wondering \"what if I could speed up app deploys by writing logic once for both native platforms\". A few videos and web searches later and here we are\...back at KMM. I had heard a few good things about using it for the web but never about using it for apps. If you don\'t already know I love kotlin and swift. They are very similar and don\'t make me internally as mad as Java and Objective-C. 😅 Where is the code? ------------------ You know I got you! Check out my repo [here](https://github.com/Keheira/kotlin-multiplatform). I want to try to do some more example projects in the future but I make it a point to work from windows for personal projects. Feels a bit unbalanced to not test iOS, but we shall see ya know. Thoughts Overall? ----------------- I like this but per usual it doesn\'t consider Jetpack Compose. I\'ll be looking into making a template for it so no worries. There is also some weird KMM specific packages to use (Ktor and SqlDelight). I wasn\'t really for them especially SqlDelight. I would love to know what makes these preferred for shared modules but that\'s for another day. I think long term this will be a pretty good cross-platform option for the growing amount of kotlin developers. Cross-platform in this sense is Android, iOS, and Web. I think next steps for me (and others) will be to see more cross-platform examples and writeups. As of now KMM is still seen as too new but I think that\'s just because people can\'t see it in production. If more people start talking about it\'s use in production and not just as hobby projects I can see this taking off and maybe being the default especially for mobile devs that want to dip a toe in the web space. I\'m just rambling at this point but give it a try and let me know what you think.
