The Hitchhikers Guide Through Kotlin Multiplatform Android Makers

Since the early days of mobile that we keep seeing new frameworks being designed to overcome one of the biggest challenges:
- How can I develop for both Android and iOS?

Although it’s initial promises, when we talk about performance, maintainability or even customization we keep discarding these solutions and we always choose native.

Fast forward to the present, and now we have two new languages: Android is Kotlin first and iOS, Swift. And if you put them side by side you can see a lot of similarities between both what will ease switching between one to the other if you have to develop for both platforms.

But what I told that you could just develop in Kotlin and run it seamlessly on all devices? Here comes Kotlin Multiplatform!

  1. a brief history of time “In the beginning the Universe

    was created. This had made many people angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.”
  2. Photo by Fabian Grohs on Unsplash a wild application idea

    appears! develop it for Android and iOS.
  3. -hire a team of specialised developers -define requirements -design mockups

    for both platforms -plan features development -start development/ write unit tests -write t-specs for SQA validation -cross-checking validation between both platforms (or jacks) Steps
  4. ~2xthe team the cost the status meetings required the time

    spent on development the time spent on testing native the time spent on bug fixing
  5. Photo by Fabian Grohs on Unsplash a wild application idea

    appears! develop it for Android and iOS and web.
  6. ~3xthe team the cost the status meetings required the time

    spent on development the time spent on testing the time spent on bug fixing
  7. - smaller team - typically half of the cost needed

    on native - small learning curve for web developers (advantages) Cross-platform
  8. - chained to the framework implementation of UI - new

    updates from the OS will take time to adopt - performance is not the same - some native code might need to be written - OS/ device features are dependent on the fw support - dart (flutter) is not widely used language (for now) - committed to one framework/ language (disadvantages) Cross-platform
  9. - developed by JetBrains - open source - concise, safe,

    interoperable, tool-friendly - supported/ used by Google for Android Development - it’s more than “just for Android” Kotlin Server-side Android Kotlin JS Native
  10. Easy to learn - small learning curve involved - easily

    to go from JavaScript/ Swift into Kotlin and back (from a developers’ point of view)
  11. var variable = 42 variable = 1 let value =

    42 var variable = 42 variable = 1 val value = 42 *adapted from http://nilhcem.com/swift-is-like-kotlin/ (variables and constants) Kotlin vs Swift Kotlin Swift
  12. fun greet(name: String, day: String): String { return "Hello $name,

    today is $day." } greet(“Paris”, “Monday”) *updated from http://nilhcem.com/swift-is-like-kotlin/ func greet(_ name: String,_ day: String) -> String { return "Hello \(name), today is \(day)." } greet(“Paris”, “Monday”) Kotlin Swift (functions) Kotlin vs Swift
  13. class Shape { var numberOfSides = 0 func simpleDescription() ->

    String { return "A shape with \(numberOfSides) sides." } } var shape = Shape() shape.numberOfSides = 7 var shapeDescription = shape.simpleDescription() class Shape { var numberOfSides = 0 fun simpleDescription() = "A shape with $numberOfSides sides." } var shape = Shape() shape.numberOfSides = 7 var shapeDescription = shape.simpleDescription() (variables and constants) Kotlin vs Swift Kotlin Swift

    positive mental attitude if you’re saying things like that?”

  18. (advantages) - language features - kotlin first! - low risk

    - you decide what’s worth to share across platforms - interoperability - consistency across platforms - strong community support Kotlin Multiplatform
  19. commonMain src/commonMain/sample/Platform.kt - define actual on android - define actual

    on iOS targets: android and iOS expect object Platform { val name: String }
  20. src/iOSMain/sample/Platform.kt actual object Platform { actual val name: String =

    "Android" } actual object Platform { actual val name: String = "iOS" } src/androidMain/sample/Platform.kt platform-dependent code

    or so, nothing continued to happen.”

  25. - user interface - RecyclerView and more (Android) - UITableViewController

    and more (iOS) - multiple network request - parse response objects - store on local database - notify the UI - that there’s new content available to be draw - reload list project structure

  67. (impressions) Kotlin Multiplatform I could just focus on doing what

    I know best - UI. I have no idea how things are being done in the backend, yet I know that when I ask for data I receive it. - iOS Developer
  68. - it’s in experimental state - although we keep seeing

    new projects in production - Space was announced during Kotlin Conf 19 (web, desktop and mobile) (apps in production) Kotlin Multiplatform Space Adapted from: KotlinConf 2019: Opening Keynote by Andrey Breslav Full KMP Cash App Shares: business logic Yandex Maps Shares: business logic, wrappers for C++ libraries PlanGrid Planboard Workspace Shares: business logic, sync logic, mgmnt offline data Shares: business logic, networking, offline caching lyrs Shares: business logic
  69. - start small, don’t try to reach 100% of shared

    logic - perhaps by writing common tests to gain familiarity - one module at a time (network, database, image processing, etc.) - you can spend some time resolving compilation issues - specially if you try to target all platforms (how to start?) Kotlin Multiplatform - it’s in experimental state - experimental means that one simple update can break your builds - lookout for plugins/ libraries updates
  70. - evangelize the iOS team - select one module where

    something is more complex on iOS than on Android - KMP is not intended to share the UI - iOS developers can focus on Swift and frontend features - On cross platform like Flutter or React Native they need to use Dart or JS - not possible to debug kotlin from Xcode - plugin for Xcode from TouchLab/ support mentioned on Kotlin Conf 19 (how to start?) Kotlin Multiplatform
  71. - strong community - a lot of people are using

    kotlin nowadays - Google and JetBrains are pushing Kotlin in - you can ask questions directly on https://kotlinlang.slack.com - 2x faster to develop your features business logic - 2x faster writing unit tests - one tech stack - consistency across platforms (conclusions) Kotlin Multiplatform
