This repository demonstrates a basic Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) app that utilizes Decompose, a framework for structuring lifecycle-aware business logic components, also known as BLoCs (Business Logic Components), in KMP projects. The UI components are built using Jetpack Compose for Android and SwiftUI for iOS.
Decompose is a Kotlin Multiplatform library that facilitates the decomposition of code into tree-structured, lifecycle-aware BLoCs. It provides routing functionality and allows for pluggable UI implementations, enabling the use of Jetpack Compose, Android Views, SwiftUI, JS React, or other UI frameworks.
Decompose offers several benefits, including:
- Enhancing Modular Architecture: Promotes a modular code structure, enhancing maintainability and testability.
- Simplifying Lifecycle Awareness: Components are automatically managed based on their lifecycles, simplifying state management.
- Enabling Routing Flexibility: Enables seamless navigation between components within the UI hierarchy.
- Supporting Pluggable UI: Supports various UI frameworks, providing flexibility in UI implementation.
Kotlin Multiplatform is a technology that empowers developers to write code once and share it across multiple platforms, including Android, iOS, web, and more. It allows for creating a common codebase that targets different platforms while enabling platform-specific customizations.
Key advantages of Kotlin Multiplatform include:
- Reducing Code Reusability: Reduces code duplication and maintenance effort.
- Allowing Platform-Specific Customizations: Allows for tailoring the app to each platform's specific requirements.
- Maintaining Shared Business Logic: Maintains consistent business logic across all targeted platforms.
- Facilitating Unified Codebase: Facilitates collaboration among developers with varying platform expertise.
