Create Platform-Independent Applications With Kotlin

22 Jul 2023 Balmiki Mandal 0 Kotlin

Kotlin Multiplatform is a technology that allows you to create platform-independent applications with Kotlin. This means that you can write your code once and run it on multiple platforms, such as Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux.

To create a platform-independent application with Kotlin Multiplatform, you will need to:

  1. Create a new project in Android Studio.
  2. Select the "Kotlin Multiplatform" project type.
  3. Select the platforms that you want to target.
  4. Write your code in Kotlin.
  5. Build and run your application.

Here is an example of a platform-independent application with Kotlin Multiplatform:

Kotlin
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    // Print the current platform.
    println(Platform.current())
}
 

This code will print the current platform, such as "Android" or "iOS". The code will run on all platforms that you have targeted.

Kotlin Multiplatform is a powerful technology that can help you to create platform-independent applications. If you are looking for a way to write code that can run on multiple platforms, then Kotlin Multiplatform is a great option.

Here are some of the benefits of using Kotlin Multiplatform:

  • You can write your code once and run it on multiple platforms.
  • You can share code between your different platforms.
  • You can use the same libraries on all of your platforms.
  • You can write more maintainable and portable code.

If you are interested in learning more about Kotlin Multiplatform, I recommend that you read the Kotlin Multiplatform documentation: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform.html. This documentation provides a comprehensive overview of Kotlin Multiplatform, including its features, syntax, and usage.

 

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
