Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) VS Compose Multiplatform - Explained 

+1

How can it make Kotlin multi-platform obsolete😂😂? Can you elaborate??

Well, Jetpack Compose is stable for Android and Desktop (Even though I haven't tried a Desktop yet.)

@@StevdzaSan ok, that's good news, I also want to make a desktop application for 3 platforms at once, if you have time, please make a tutorial to make a desktop application from beginners, thank you

You got that right! 💪

​@@StevdzaSandoes that mean xml ui is no longer needed?

​@@laujimmy9282you can. as many existing apps still using XML, fragments and a lot of activities in their projects. So in the market you will find many companies are building new features with both Compose and XML but their existing code is still in XML and they have no plans to move their code from XML to compose as they are busy in developing new features instead of reinvesting their time in old things in XML that are working fine...

Its main purpose is to enable easy and efficient serialization and deserialization of Kotlin objects to and from various formats, such as JSON, XML, and binary formats like Protocol Buffers. This library is particularly useful when building Kotlin applications that need to exchange data with external systems or persist data in a standardized format.

@@StevdzaSan Alright. Thanks for the information.

16 GB is okay, but I would advice 32 GB for the long run. :)

I use 16GB without issue, but if you can afford the extra ram I'd definitely get it

Cross platform technologies have been around for ages, and native devs still exist. You're probably fine. But it's never a bad thing to experiment and keep yourself up to date with new tech.

Kotlin!

@@StevdzaSan thanks

Yeah, sure, why not.

According to my experience, it was extremely slow and memory hungry. But he learning curve is much easier than for Flutter.

😂 right

It's interesting indeed but will someone that's already invested in Flutter instantly switch over 🤔 I don't think so.

So far Flutter is so far ahead that I tend to think Compose can never catch up... I tried Compose on desktop and it was a disaster... it was extremely slow and memory hungry when compared to Flutter.

@vlad Is that true? Can we not uses Compose multi platform for desktops? Using it will reduce performance?

@@sendhur_muthu According to my simple tests, Flutter had better performance and consumed less memory. But you should make some simple tests for yourself.

I've already made a video about KMP, and using android with other platforms.

@@StevdzaSan can u share link. I couldn't find it. You have made videos about using Kmp project from start and not using KMP in exisiting native android

@@gofudgeyourselves9024 That's the one. You can figure it out from that video already. You also have the source code of that project as well.
