Anyone have experience with using Mapbox with Kotlin Multiplatform?

[Derek Ellis]

Yes, I have a project that's more or less centered around it

Is this project public, i'm curious to hear if you have had any challenges with using mapbox with KMM and how you went about dealing with view logic in both iOS & Android respectively.

This was my proof of concept for having data sources come from common code: https://github.com/dellisd/mmapp
The full project is here, but it's a bit messy: https://github.com/cuhacking/atlas

There's also this library, if you haven't seen it already: https://github.com/icerockdev/moko-maps

I had not seen that, i'll look through both of those. I'm particularly interested in using Mapbox route navigation in Kotlin Multiplatform.

One thing to know is that the new Mapbox v10 (in beta) does not work great with KMP.

It is rewritten in Swift with very little code exposed to Objective-C. Since KMP only interops with Objective-C, I've had to build a wrapper around the functionality in Mapbox that I want.

The stuff I've been doing is not public.

[Derek Ellis]

Swift interop is supposed to be in the works, but it's still a longer term goal (as of the last roadmap update)

KMP interops with objc? Oh. That does not sound fun. 😄
