A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I am attempting to test the waters with Compose Multiplatform using Android Studio. I’ve got the basic template app set up and working for both Android and iOS. I’ve added a UIViewController written in swift to the iOS project and I am trying to figure out how to present it from the kotlin code. (We have a great deal of natively implemented views on both Android and iOS that if we go forward will need to seamlessly interweave with Compose views.)

I’m going in circles just trying to get the Swift class to show up in Kotlin. There seems to be different approaches out there, but I haven’t gotten them to work. I do have my UIViewController class marked with @objc with an explicit objc name.

What is the most friction-free way of doing this for a codebase with larges amounts of native code and how do I get it to work? For context, I’m an a Swift/iOS dev so I find Android studio and Gradle to be pretty clunky.
