ReduxKotlin There are a few ports of Redux for KMM. This one might be the best because it is thread safe, which is very nice. The only drawback that I don't love about it is that it doesn't have types for sevral aspacts that feel like they should have types. On the other-hand ReKotlin (which is a port of ReSwift) has a lot of the typing that ReduxKotlin is missing, but is missing the thread safety. It just depends on your use-case.
I wrote an article about Redux architecture for SwiftUI, you can achieve pretty amazing stuff using it. Below Hot Reload implemented in 30 minutes. More links in comments. It's worth at least getting familiar with this architecture :)

Great article OP! Im sure you've seen it in your travels, but Ive been using ReSwift and ReSwift-Thunk for async actions and I've had great success - Gonna look into your navigation solution as that was the one part I'm still missing!
Do we have Redux specialists here :D? I'm trying to figure out if I should use classes or structs for keeping the state
