Kotlin Multiplatform by Tutorials: Build Native Apps Faster by Sharing Code Across Platforms

Book Description

Learn how to use Kotlin to share code across platforms

Mobile developers have to often repeat the same code across multiple platforms, which is not only time-consuming but also error-prone. Most documentation targets only specific use cases but misses out on the nuances essential to sharing code effectively across platforms.

Kotlin Multiplatform by Tutorials will help you efficiently implement real-world apps for different platforms by sharing common code.

Who this book is for

This book is for mobile developers and managers who want to explore how they can use Kotlin Multiplatform to share code across Android, iOS and desktop apps. If you want to reduce development and testing time by writing certain parts of your apps only once, this book will help.

Topics covered in Kotlin Multiplatform by Tutorials

• Jetpack Compose Android: Use Android’s latest UI toolkit to quickly spin up the UI for different screens of your Android app.
• Compose Multiplatform: Use the concepts you learned in Jetpack Compose Android to develop the UI for desktop apps.
• SwiftUI: Learn how to develop the UI for iOS and macOS apps entirely in Swift.
• Testing: Make your code reliable by writing tests for both common code as well as platform-specific code.
• Koin: Learn about dependency injection and how you can use Koin to implement dependency injection in multiplatform apps.
• SQLDelight: Create a common persistence layer for your multiplatform apps while also getting the benefits of compile-time safety for schemas, statements and migrations.
• Serialization: Learn about different serialization formats and how you can use them to parse JSON data fetched from the Internet.
• Ktor: Implement a common networking layer with support for platform-specific HTTP clients.
• Coroutines: Learn about structures concurrency and the considerations to keep in mind while using coroutines on different platforms.

One thing you can count on: after reading this book, you’ll be prepared to create modules where you can write your code only once but target multiple platforms.

了解如何使用Kotlin跨平台共享代码

移动开发人员不得不经常跨多个平台重复相同的代码，这不仅耗时而且容易出错。大多数文档只针对特定的用例，而忽略了有效地跨平台共享代码所必需的细微差别。

Kotlin MultiPlatform by教程将通过共享公共代码来帮助您高效地为不同平台实现现实世界中的应用程序。

这本书是为谁而写的

本书面向想要探索如何使用Kotlin多平台在Android、iOS和桌面应用程序之间共享代码的移动开发人员和管理人员。如果你想通过只编写一次应用程序的某些部分来减少开发和测试时间，这本书将会有所帮助。

Topics covered in Kotlin Multiplatform by Tutorials

• Jetpack Compose Android: Use Android’s latest UI toolkit to quickly spin up the UI for different screens of your Android app.
• 构建多平台：使用您在Jetpack Compose Android中学到的概念来开发桌面应用程序的UI。
• SwiftUI：了解如何在SWIFT中完全为iOS和MacOS应用程序开发UI。
• Testing：通过为通用代码和特定于平台的代码编写测试，使您的代码可靠。
• Koin：了解依赖项注入以及如何使用KOIN在多平台应用程序中实现依赖项注入。
• SQLDellight：为您的多平台应用程序创建一个公共持久层，同时还可以获得模式、语句和迁移的编译时安全的好处。
• 序列化：了解不同的序列化格式以及如何使用它们来解析从Internet获取的JSON数据。
• Ktor：实施支持特定于平台的HTTP客户端的通用网络层。
• Coroutines：了解结构、并发性以及在不同平台上使用协程时需要注意的事项。

您可以信赖的一件事是：读完这本书后，您将准备创建模块，在这些模块中，您只能编写一次代码，但要面向多个平台。
