hi, what is the current state of moko-widgets? idea seems great, yet complexity level would be similar to Xamarin.Forms, which is a lot to take on and time consuming

[Glen]

Asking myself the same question.

hi.
now moko-widgets frozen. we have plan to update library to kotlin 1.5.0 with other moko libs in next month. but we not have plans for some improvements or fixes of this library

[alex009]

we think about contribution into https://github.com/cl3m/multiplatform-compose
jetpack compose on android & ios with fully native UI views will be great and will be better than moko-widgets

[Steve Soltys]

If you would like any help with the above, let me know. I could work on some missing features in my spare time, but not sure of a priority list since I haven't used jetpack compose much

[solidogen]

I think it may be a better choice to wait for Kotlin-Swift interop and try to implement iOS part in SwiftUI kotlin bindings (if it becomes a thing, but I guess it would be doable at that point)

[Steve Soltys]

Is there any issue or place to track the status of Kotlin-Swift interop?

[solidogen]

I guess this is the best bet, it is postponed for now https://kotlinlang.org/docs/roadmap.html#roadmap-details

[Steve Soltys]

Thanks

[alex009]

You can use swiftui by implementation of custom own swift cocoapod that will be connected to kotlin by cinterop. To call from kotlin just will use objc annotated methods and inside this methods will use swiftui

[alex009]

I maybe find some time and implement sample

[Steve Soltys]

That makes sense. If you still have plans to contribute to multiplatform-compose in the future, let me know how I can help out
