Anyone interested in helping with a Kotlin MP Redux? Goal is a version of redux that supports all platforms. Specifically looking for someone with some JS expertise to help with consuming shared Kotlin code from actual JS code. Starting point would be the counter sample app. https://reduxkotlin.org

[Robert Jaros]

Great work with Kotlin Redux, but why do you think anyone would want to use it from JS, when the original Redux is available, free and full of additional modules and features? 🙂

[Patrick Jackson]

share code between android/iOS for example

[Patrick Jackson]

redux & middleware shared, and thin UI layer in language native to the platform

[Patrick Jackson]

just exploring at this point. you would lose the JS ecosystem of middleware, but gain shared code

[Patrick Jackson]

And React-Redux in Kotlin has way too many type params being passed around to make a good dev experience. at least in the version I was using

[Robert Jaros]

I've created a wrapper over wrapper for my kotlin/js framework, to make this nicer 😉

[Robert Jaros]

But it allowed me to create interchangable redux modules after integrating Kotlin Redux.

[Patrick Jackson]

oh nice! would be interested in seeing this if it is open

[Patrick Jackson]

was thinking there is probably a cleaner way to do it

[Robert Jaros]

it is, but the new module will be released in the next version

[Robert Jaros]

This is a module for original Redux:

And this for Redux Kotlin:

I do react-native but not native with Kotlin it swift. There’s just so much for me to learn though I’ve been doing mobile for about two years now. @Patrick Jackson do you have a git repo for your project?

[patjackson52]

@Buzz yes, but the work I'm talking about is on a branch. I'll try to get it up soon so you can take a look

[Buzz]

Are you still looking for some collaborators?

[Patrick Jackson]

Yes! just saw this. dm me or post in the #redux channel
