Compose multiplatform
Now what if apple kills UiKit and keeps only SwiftUi, won't happen but lets assume that it does. Compose can use SwiftUi under the hood. Its already there as a prototype .

I've made a huge mistake by switching to Kotlin /s
This is a great open-source implementation of the same concept! https://github.com/cashapp/redwood

Kotlin Multiplatform seems promising. What do you think?
There's also the Compose compiler based approach redwood that uses native UI on iOS.
-
Can KMM code be used on web?
Sharing UI code is definitely feasible though. Look at Redwood for example. It isn't really a general purpose UI library as-is, but someone could (in theory) build a library of cross-platform widgets that work a lot like React Native widgets, and that would enable you to build UI entirely in multiplatform Kotlin.

so apparently you can't say stuff like that anymore

Understanding file associations in JVM apps
So, to add file associations, we need to be able to pass both the .properties file and the --file-associations option. At the time of writing this article, the org.jetbrains.compose plugin doesn't provide such a mechanism. There is an open issue on GitHub that describes a possible workaround, which, unfortunately seems to not work on macOS.

Compose cannot be used for large amount of text
JetBrains has a simplified example of a general-purpose Compose text viewer here: https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/blob/master/examples/codeviewer/shared/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/jetbrains/codeviewer/ui/editor/Editor.kt

Timeline with Scrollbar in LazyColumn Compose
Compose for desktop has a scrollbar component available. You probably can't use that directly on Android, but you could probably steal most of its code.
- How good is Compose Multiplatform in production especially in creating Desktop apps?

Kotlin for a desktop App
My company uses https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform to make a desktop app in Kotlin. It's amazing and fantastic. It's basically as mature as using Kotlin in an Android app.

JetBrains Compose is now Compose Multiplatform
As for missing controls, a common one is a grid. They have built in grids, but again they are built for Android and don't make any sense in a desktop app. There is no simple way to create an Excel-like Data Grid like you might see in Windows Forms, although it can be done. https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/issues/344.
