" summary

Claim: share business logic with Kotlin/Native to avoid duplicate work while keeping UI native. Built a working server and iOS/Android apps for a "porch pirate protector" project though the hardware lock is unfinished. Uses Ktor + kotlinx.serialization and SQLDelight, and generates platform color resources via Kotlin scripts. Hits: retain cycles with MVP on native ARC lead to switches to unidirectional view state to stop leaks, and Ktor forces callbacks on the main thread so threading and concurrency remain important tradeoffs.
