🤩 The RevenueCat SDK for Kotlin Multiplatform has reached its stable v1 release! It started as an independent project, KobanKat, by Joop Korteweg, who now shares the key decisions behind building it. Decisions such as: 1️⃣ Choosing a top-down architecture The main decision we had to make was around the architecture. While Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) SDKs are often built bottom-up, our existing cross-platform SDKs follow a top-down approach. To maintain consistency, we chose to build the KMP SDK top-down as well — and thanks to KMP’s flexibility, this approach worked well. 2️⃣ Opting for wrappers over type aliases Initially, KobanKat used type aliases for accessing platform-specific implementations. However, this exposed platform SDKs to the app’s platform source sets, which could lead to breaking changes. To avoid this, we switched to wrappers, allowing for future improvements without disrupting the public API. The Kotlin Multiplatform SDK has everything you need to start earning revenue with your KMP app — and then some. For example, the KMP SDK also supports Paywalls!

Inspektify: KMP network inspection library by Blaž Vantur Inspektify is a debug tool for observing the app's real-time network traffic. It enables all team members to access all network details directly on the device where an application is being run. No additional tooling is needed, no development setups on your computers, no need to connect your phone to your computer, no technical knowledge (besides for developers to include lib to the project), or other complex additional steps are needed. We can have access to all network information directly on our phones. With minimum library setup all we need to do is to shake our mobile device and a new window is presented with a list of all network communication that happened within the app. Blogpost: https://lnkd.in/g7xmcNi5 Repo: https://lnkd.in/gFHgC65Z Sample app: https://lnkd.in/gh8PjJJA --- Want to see more posts like this?

Building A Custom Design System in Compose Multiplatform by Kashif Mehmood Compose comes with Material Design out of the box. But what if you want something different? What if your designer has built his design system and does not want to follow the material guidelines or the whole system? Well! You don't have to worry, it's easy to do with Jetpack Compose/Compose Multiplatform compared to what we used to do with color files and style files with XML back in the day.

Clean up your complex gradle scripts by using conventions in your KMP project. Using conventions can abstract and clean up all those custom plugins and Gradle configurations. Especially now when managing multiple device's dependencies, plugins and configs. Using conventions in a KMP project could add much value even though only for Android and shared code by keeping your gradle files succinct.
