Hi everybody,

I wonder if anyone has managed to use gRPC <> iOS with Kotlin Multiplatform, until now, we have had lots of issues,

I found out that https://github.com/grpc/grpc-kotlin seems to be a pure Kotlin implementation but I haven't tried it for IOS

Thanks

It's not pure Kotlin, it's very jvm tied

[Alexis Hernandez]

well, the code seems to be kotlin but it depends on jvm libs, is there any alternative?

[Paul Woitaschek]

There is wire by square

[Alexis Hernandez]

I guess you refer to https://github.com/square/wire which doesn't seem to work with multiplatform

[Paul Woitaschek]

Why not? It has native source sets. What else would they be good for?

[Alexis Hernandez]

I think the problem is the gRPC runtime for iOS but I can give it a try, nothing mentions that

[Paul Woitaschek]

Seems it just exists

Apparently, the team says that this is not the case
