Book Description
Explore the new Kotlin Multiplatform to build native apps for Android and iOS while sharing business logic between apps
Key Features
Improve app development speed dramatically Author: writing the business logic in Kotlin
Implement a native user interface and work with platform-specific APIs
Leverage Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile’s code-sharing capabilities for your projects
Sharing code between platforms can help developers gain a competitive edge, and Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) offers a sensible way to do it. KMM helps mobile teams share code between Android and iOS in a flexible way, leaving room for native development.
The book begins Author: helping you to gain a clear understanding of the Kotlin Multiplatform approach, how it works, and how it is different from cross-platform technologies, such as React Native and Flutter, and code sharing options, such as C++. You’ll then see how your team can use this software development kit (SDK) to build native applications more effectively Author: learning timeless concepts and working through practical examples. As you advance, you’ll get to grips with the core concepts, understand why UI sharing fails, and get hands-on with developing a small KMM application. Finally, you’ll discover expert tips and best practices, along with production- and adoption-related questions, that will help you take the next step in your project and career.
Author: the end of this Kotlin book, you’ll have gained a solid understanding of the capabilities of KMM and be able to share code between Android and iOS flexibly.
