Kotlin Multiplatform in 2024: Is It Ready?
A hands-on look at Kotlin Multiplatform for sharing business logic between Android and iOS apps.
Kotlin Multiplatform has matured significantly. Here’s what it’s like to use it in a real production project.
What Works Well
- Shared networking and data layers
- Shared business logic and validation
- Kotlinx.serialization across platforms
What’s Still Rough
- iOS debugging experience
- CocoaPods integration quirks
- Limited UI sharing (though Compose Multiplatform is improving)
Verdict
KMP is production-ready for sharing business logic. For UI, stick with native or Flutter for now.
