#C3PQML5NU Not sure if this is the right location, but can someone point me to where I can find instructions on how to generate a release for iOS and Android out of my KMP project?

[Darryl Pierce]

Or if someone could share a link to an exist Github project that uses KMP and which produces an iOS and an Android artifact as output, I'd appreciate that.

[rnett]

Have you seen https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform/multiplatform-publish-apps.html?

[Darryl Pierce]

@rnett I saw that earlier today, but was confused by the reference to this file since I couldn't find a match in my KMP project:

iosApp/Configuration/Config.xcconfig

[rnett]

Ah, I have no idea what that is unfortunately, I'm not familiar with app development, I'd just seen that doc before

[Darryl Pierce]

But my app is targeting both android and iOS and has MVPs that runs on both.

[Ben Morris-Rains]

It's the same process as generating a release for native Android and iOS.

[Darryl Pierce]

I've not done that either unfortunately. This is breaking new ground for me.

[Ben Morris-Rains]

#C0B8M7BUY #C9JM6Q2UX might be of more help, or some YouTube videos can walk you through the process. It's not too hard using Android Studio and Xcode.

Take a look on fastlane, it will help you to remove a lot of boilerplate.
iOS distribution requires a paid account.
Anyway, it’s easier du distribution from Xcode if you do it manually

[Darryl Pierce]

@François How much manual work is involved? Is there no way to have our CI/CD generate the artifacts for distribution?

[François]

For automation, fastlane is a a nice tool, you can run it locally or on your CI

[François]

It depends of your needs

[Darryl Pierce]

I did ultimately find a project that gave me some ideas:

https://github.com/android/kotlin-multiplatform-samples

[Darryl Pierce]

The github action for building gave me a sample for building the artifacts for both target platforms that I'm trying out now.

[François]

That’s an alternative, there are tones of github action about iOS/Androdi delivery

[Darryl Pierce]

Just needed to a find a simple one, not too overcomplicated, that gave me a foundation to build on. Now to just learn more about publishing things and I'll be ... less overwhelmed... 😄

[François]

Good luck 🚀
