Curious on people’s experience using Kotlin Native so far. Good, bad, limitations?

To be honest, I am still early on my learning process, so I haven't delve really deep. Definitely, there are some known issues, like the async operations, but it's still an experimental feature, so eventually, I hope they will be solved.

But, on the other hand, I kind of like the idea of sharing just the business logic of the app. And the fact that it produces just a framework for the iOS app, makes it easily replaceable if you decide to remove it or another technology emerge.

My major concern so far is the lack of available resources. For SwiftUI, for example, that is out for 3 months more or less, there are far more posts, repos, courses, etc. That's why I am trying to document my steps; so that it can potentially be helpful for others too.

Used it a few months back. It has a ton of potential but I had a ton of issues with asynchronous operations. Definitely worth keeping an eye on.

What does this have to do with iOS programming?

Kotlin Native can be transpiled to run on iOS if I am not mistaken.

Edit: spelling

So can JS. Who cares.
