  • Kermit

    Kermit by Touchlab is a Kotlin Multiplatform centralized logging utility.

    Kermit The Log. This is a great logging library for KMM that is easy to use and created by Touchlab.

  • ktor

    Framework for quickly creating connected applications in Kotlin with minimal effort

    Ktor is a Jetbrains created library for making Kotlin web servers and clients. It has a nice API and is easy to write api requests.

  • Appwrite

    Appwrite - The open-source backend cloud platform. The open-source backend cloud platform for developing Web, Mobile, and Flutter applications. You can set up your backend faster with real-time APIs for authentication, databases, file storage, cloud functions, and much more!

  • kotlin-result

    Kotlin Result a very good monad library.

  • SQLDelight

    SQLDelight - Generates typesafe Kotlin APIs from SQL

    Some Libraries That Work Really Well SQLDelight as the name implies, this library is for dealing with SQL on all platforms that KMM supports. It's somewhat easy to use and works extremely reliable, plus has a very active community.

  • KaMPKit

    KaMP Kit by Touchlab. A collection of code & tools designed to get your mobile team started quickly w/Kotlin Multiplatform

    KaMPKit This one is really good, and is kinda a best practice starting point. Touchlab is a very active contributor to the KMM community and it's definitely worth keeping an eye on their blog linked above.

  • ReKotlin

    Unidirectional Data Flow in Kotlin - Port of https://github.com/ReSwift/ReSwift to Kotlin

    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.

  • ReSwift

    Unidirectional Data Flow in Swift - Inspired by Redux

    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.

  • Mergify

    Updating dependencies is time-consuming.. Solutions like Dependabot or Renovate update but don't merge dependencies. You need to do it manually while it could be fully automated! Add a Merge Queue to your workflow and stop caring about PR management & merging. Try Mergify for free.
