Hi. I only found out about Ballast last night and will give it a go today. The Ballast seems very nice, I like the readability it provides. In my KMM project, Android and iOS, I share UI in the

commonMain

using the Jetbrains Compose. Do you have any recommendations for using Ballast in this use case? Expect/Actuals for ViewModels?

Since you’re using Compose UI for the iOS UI, I think your life will be much easier than trying to use it in native iOS UIs. You should be able to define the ViewModel using

BasicViewModel

and scope it to

rememberCoroutineScope()

, and keep it all in common code. The Compose desktop snippet is how you’d set it up. You’ll probably need to keep the EventHandler for each VM platform-specific, either with DI or expect/actual. More generally, best practices for using Ballast on iOS is a bit of an open question, since I changed teams at work before we could get the iOS app migrated to KMM. There’s a discussion thread on the repo if you’ve got thoughts on how you think it should be handled, or if you notice any issues with the approach outlined above.

heheh i already gave it a go, and it all works nice and smoothly. Forked your repo, and I'll add an example to it. 🙂

That would be wonderful, thank you!

Created the PR, but without Web. No time to fight it today 🙂

No problem, I just merged it in. It looks great, this is my first time actually running a Compose iOS app! I’m really excited to see this technology mature

Me too, but it will be better if it fills the full screen 🙂
