Hi everyone, does anyone know how can I reach JetBrains? I just want to give a feedback or suggestion to create a single guideline on using Kotlin Multiplatform in an enterprise application. Like a sample project with documentation wherein you can use as reference in building an enterprise app. It should include the libraries, plugins, architecture pattern and few basic things. I am new in the ecosystem and I'm really confused, every time that I am counter checking and analyzing the sample projects on "kotlin multiplatform samples" page, it's making me more confused as there are a lot of different implementations. I am not actually sure what to follow or what libraries to use. This effort will help a lot in mass adoption of the tech. I am hoping that this is actually possible. If this thing already exist, please let me know.

Maybe create an issue on youtrack or DM one of the dev relations people on twitter ?

This Slack is a good place reach them, they are here and sometimes answer 🙂 One issue I think is that the number of libraries in KMP expanding very fast, and also CMP/KMP ecosystem. So a lot of things in sample projects quickly becoming deprecated things or old things. Given that, doing a larger sample app will become even more fragmented and most probably not fit all enterprises, as they are widely different in size and needs. My recommendation is to check existing KMP apps published and are open source. Also asking what you want to know. Also multiplatform things in general is confusing in the beginning. If you dont have experience in all supported platforms, its harder. Imagine youre iOS developer and want to go Kotlin multiplatform, its complicated. Then add new things like wasm, different desktop OS, TV etc on top of that. Very hard recommend something 🙂

Hi there! We recently released the template library section on kmp.jetbrains.com.
I will definitely take your suggestion of a bigger and more definitive/opinionated sample to the team. Thank you!

@Pamela Hill Thank you, I just saw the reply today and I really appreciate it. I will wait for that great update ☺️ I'm from a different ecosystem, I am open if you have questions on my end about my experience in learning Kotlin Multiplatform.
