Known problems

You might see: Configuration on demand is not supported by the current version of the Android Gradle plugin since you are using Gradle version 4.6 or above. Suggestion: disable configuration on demand by setting org.gradle.configureondemand=false in your gradle.properties file or use a Gradle version less than 4.6.

Also: Error:The modules ['android', 'mobile'] point to the same directory in the file system. Each module must have a unique path.

Hacks

Multiplatform development in Kotlin still have some limitations. This is why I had to apply some hacks which are temporary.

Native dependencies

Cannot declare Gradle dependencies on Konan yet, so we just include sources.

Names generated by JS

Generated names for functions have mashed names. This is why from:

interface QuotationView {
    fun showQuote(quote: Quote)
}

We have function required named showQuote_4z1tej$

Mixing Kotlin and Swift dependencies is not allowed in Konan

We cannot do:

class ViewController : UIViewController, QuotationView {

    override fun showQuote(quote: Quote) {
        textView.text = quote.text
        authorView.text = quote.person
    }

    //...
}

We need to do instead:

class ViewController : UIViewController {

    private val quotationView = object : QuotationView {
        override fun showQuote(quote: Quote) {
            textView.text = quote.text
            authorView.text = quote.person
        }
    }

    // ...
}
