Kotlin/Native Concurrency for Mobile Multiplatform
TOPIC Kotlin Multiplatform will allow sharing native code among many platforms. The native mobile developer world, in particular, will see a lot of benefit very quickly from KMP.
The Android developer community seems pretty excited by the possibilities. However, coming from the JVM, there are new things you must learn. One of the most important is Kotlin/Native’s state and concurrency model. While the Kotlin/Native state model is conceptually simple, it is also different, and will cause some confusion if you don’t learn the rules.
In this talk we’ll cover:
- How the state and concurrency model work
- Why the Kotlin team made these design choices
- Libraries to help
- Patterns to follow
- What to do when you have trouble
We won’t get into the expert level topics, but you’ll have all the info you need to get started with Kotlin/Native and concurrency.
