08/03/2023, 7:32 PMDoes anyone have recommendations for sharing view model state through KMP? Also, how to handle app navigation? I see the Decompose and MVI-Kotlin libraries are quite mature, but they also seem pretty heavy / opinionated. Do you have to use them together, or can you mix and match? Are libraries even necessary?

Not necessarily. Every library covers different topic.

08/03/2023, 8:11 PMThere is no such thing as MVIKotlin ViewModel. The library provides a single source of truth (Store) for an app/screen/sub-screen/whatever. With some cool debugging tools like logging or time traveling.
Decompose is for navigation and code decomposition.
