Shared mobile UIs with Compose Multiplatform
summary
Compose Multiplatform from JetBrains lets teams write one Compose UI that runs on Android and iOS, with examples shipped (DroidCon app) and production use (Instabee delivering to ~45 million customers); demos include a Memories viewer and a porting Rally app in minutes speedrun that mostly works, animations hitting 60 FPS on regular devices though 120 Hz sometimes reaches ~110 FPS. iOS support is usable but iOS target is alpha: expect missing small APIs (decimal format, some resource adapters), use Ktor/SQLDelight/Moko/Voyager or Coil for gaps.
