Just published a short overview of yet another KMP starter project powered by Redux (ReKotlin/ReKamp) architecture and XcodeGen on iOS side: https://medium.com/xorum-io/battle-tested-template-project-for-kotlin-multiplatfor[…]92bb00c?source=friends_link&sk=399363810f81c43301472a08cbfef50d

Two posts below in the channel, I invalidated the statement where you say you need a Mac to write the iOS code 😉 https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0BJ0GTE2/p1622739741139100?thread_ts=1622739741.139100&cid=C0BJ0GTE2

@louiscad that’s an awesome plugin, which would make many things possible for non-mac users. But it won’t allow you to launch, test or compile KMP modules for iOS or do I miss anything?

[louiscad]

@Yev Kanivets You missed the FAQ right into the README

[Yev Kanivets]

@louiscad this one?

[louiscad]

Yes

[Yev Kanivets]

That’s not exactly what I meant 🙂

[Yev Kanivets]

CI is cool, but checking the compilation on CI gonna be a long story for the KMP dev.

[Yev Kanivets]

At least from my personal experience.

[louiscad]

Did you look at the entire FAQ answer? CI is not the only way.

[Yev Kanivets]

For the record, I don’t like the Mac-only approach as well 🙂

[Yev Kanivets]

Haha, I know there are other options, but one thing is that something is possible (big kudos to you for making it possible), but another thing is how convenient it is.

[Yev Kanivets]

The KMP itself isn’t yet convenient enough for the wide adoption, and if you try it on non-mac machine you have even less convenience, which may seriously affect your impression for the tech.
