Something big might happen to the Kotlin Multiplatform Ecosystem 👀
We were never too happy about how Kotlin publishes and resolves KMP libraries. It takes up significantly more space than it has to, produces a ton of artifacts and Maven modules, and is just... complex!

Looking for useful Kotlin Multiplatform libraries?
Here are three worth exploring on Klibs.io:
🎬 ComposeMediaPlayer – add cross-platform video playback with support for local and URL-based files.
kotl.in/8n0pb1
🍎 NSExceptionKt – improve crash reporting for Kotlin/Native apps on Apple platforms.
kotl.in/eq7a53
⚙️ multiplatform-settings – persist key-value data in shared Kotlin code across multiple platforms.

KMP-NativeCoroutines preparing for transition to Swift Export

"Once Swift export is complete and stable it'll likely completely remove the need for KMP-NativeCoroutines."

✨ Library authors, get support from the Kotlin Foundation!
We’re reopening the Grants Program for Multiplatform libraries. Winners will get financial support and recognition in the community.
Check out the requirements and apply before June 25. 👇

🎉 Starting today, @Google officially supports Kotlin Multiplatform by @JetBrains for sharing business logic across mobile, web, server, and desktop! Enjoy first-class tooling and library support for KMP on Android.
A new era of KMP begins, and we’re thrilled to join it!
Kotlin Multiplatform will boost your productivity by sharing business logic across mobile, web, server, and desktop.
Jetpack libraries like DataStore and Room already support KMP with more to come! → goo.gle/4dIGqTc

📣 #MultiplatformTip
Can you share View Models across platforms with #KMP? Yes, you sure can! 🎉
Here are some examples of Kotlin Multiplatform libraries:
✅ KMM-ViewModel github.com/rickclephas/KMM-V…
✅ Voyager – voyager.adriel.cafe/ (ScreenModel)
✅ Precompose – github.com/Tlaster/PreCompos…

The best thing about Swift DocC is that besides API reference it's also capable of generating long-form docs and even interactive tutorials! Haven't checked Rick's plugin yet, but it's a nice thing to have in the Kotlin Multiplatform ecosystem.

📣 #MultiplatformTip The recommended approach to working with suspending functions and Flows from Swift is to use KMP-NativeCoroutines, the open source library from @RickClephas. It was recently selected as a Kotlin Foundation grant winner 👏🎉

Yesterday I released a follow-up article to my Droidcon Berlin talk about calling coroutines from Swift. If you're trying to convince your iOS to try out Kotlin Multiplatform, this might be the key to it 😉
