if i take a look inside ComposeApp .. it’s empty

10/10/2023, 11:09 PMThis is the official documentation of how to add dependencies.
https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-mobile-ios-dependencies.html
Tbh cocoapods makes it easy the fact that it generates the objective-c/kotlin bindings automagically. As you can read in the docs using a plain framework you gotta write the file that generates the headers and is more work.
I was using cocoapods before but I discovered that I prefer using plain interfaces to bridge Kotlin and Swift. Basically an interface is a header file at a high scale.
Whatever code that I do in swift I wrap it into an interface and send it to Compose/Kotlin land.
Haven't tried but you can import a swift library and use it in swift too. I don't see any technical limitations

10/10/2023, 11:17 PMIs that the right name? I don't recall but I believe is different. Sorry I didn't post the exact name just a clue. Go to your gradle panel and try the tasks under shared/cocoapods
