Releasing Faster with Kotlin Multiplatform

Jake shares how previously the Cash App Android, iOS, and web apps were all developed natively, resulting in two-week release trains for mobile apps with 1-2 week rollout periods. By using Kotlin Multiplatform, they were able to substantially improve those deployment times to get their apps released faster.

amazing 👍🏿

Fantastic talk and presentation. This is how WhatsApp works as well

[@pablovaldes6022]

Is Whatsapp using KMP? Never heard of that

[@eduardoruesta5180]

Just to undertand the first and last part of the talk! using KMM and CMM embed the JS, compile on RCI and deploy on CDN you have the possibility to update UI without release a new version of the app?

[@deepakjh632]

yess

[@abhimanyu.n14]

KMM - Yes, but it does not look like CMM. I believe Redwood is a separate library that does not directly use Compose UI.

[@khalidhamid7448]

@@abhimanyu.n14yes it only uses compose compiler ( tree data structure used to intelligently draw on canvas ) not compose UI.

Can't appreciate more😊😊😊

I wonder what happens when the users goes back to the previous activity/view and then clicks next... Do they see a different screen? I don't think it's a good idea to change the behavior on the fly without an app restart, or at the very least, I would be careful to not let the UX fall apart...

maza aagaya bhai

[@henrik908]

Is this the future of Development?

[@pablovaldes6022]

After all that architecture I would argue is better to go with react-native. Joke aside, great job 👌👍

[@eduardoruesta5180]

Niceee

[@haitrvn]

Why not compose multiplatform

[@nsshurtz]

Probably because that's still in alpha for iOS and experimental for Web.

[@the_somebody_nobody]

Experimental tech

[@pablovaldes6022]

It won't be able to update off the stores. CMP gotta still go through Apple/Google Store

[@NestorLedon]

This is ridiculous. Can't wait to try it out.

[@m1thrandir]

So basically... React Native

[@arsildo]

No… lmao
