I’ll be taking a short break from Bluesky for a while 👋 Not leaving permanently — just simplifying my social media to spend more time building and writing about KMP. You can still follow my dev posts, apps, articles through my other platforms here: linktr.ee/canerkaseler See you again soon! ⛅️

Building @vocabkit.bsky.social Android iOS apps 📲 with Kotlin Multiplatform and exploring ways to run local AI directly on-device 🚀 Has anyone tried the Cactus SDK❓Would like to hear your experiences or alternative recommendations 👽 #KotlinMultiplatform #AndroidDev #KMP #LocalAI

I was struggling with adding translation and text-to-speech on VocabKit Kotlin Multiplatform entrepreneurship project. While AI is helpful, I’ve spent a lot of time fixing AI code. I’m happy to have achieved the final result, thanks to KMP native support! Now need a volunteer #designer 🎨

I see sometimes devs create a Modifier and use it for different compose functions to avoid code duplication. Normally, this is the wrong approach. So I think Google wanted to provide a way to create a Style then use it for different components. What do you think? #AndroidDevelopment #jetpackcompose

Have you tried Opus 4.7? 👀 We asked two questions to it under Pro plan, and the session limit was reached. ⚠️ Then noticed Opus 4.7 uses 7.5x tokens, while Opus 4.6 uses 3x. 🤯 Opus 4.7 seems token eater 🦈 How about Max 5x — We do not yet know. 🫥 #claude #opus #anthropic

I migrated a fresh Kotlin Multiplatform Wizard project to AGP 9.0.0 and published it as a GitHub template 🪄 📚 Write-up: blog.watermelonkode.com/how-to-updat... 🎁 GitHub Repo: github.com/watermelonKo... #Kotlin #KotlinMultiplatform #KMP #AGP #Android #ComposeMultiplatform #CMP

I wanted to update KMP project for AGP 9 and see how it is simple or not. Now, I am asking myself, why I am doing this. There should be a smooth upgrade but reality is fire 🔥

During our VocabKit KMP project development, we noticed that @Preview is deprecated. If you develop a Kotlin Multiplatform too, do not forget to update it 📝

Android Studio Panda is arrived and I liked island design. However, KMP plugin is not yet completable with Panda 🐼 plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14936... By the way, I was thinking about creating KMP Project View plugin but somebody already created and shared. Software world is really wild 🤠

We built a State Machine ⚙️ framework today for KMP projects 🎉 It includes 25 unit test cases. According to its performance, we think about converting it as open source library 🚀 What do you think? + Any name suggestions? 👀 #KotlinMultiplatform #KMP #Kotlin #KotlinDev #AndroidDev #iOSDev #AppDev

This is a KMP Desktop project with CMP which assists me to upload all words and images into Firebase Database and Storage for @vocabkit.bsky.social ⚙️ It is under development progress such as home page is cooking now 🥘 Feel free to join wait list www.vocabkit.ca ✍️ #KotlinMultiplatform #Firebase

Update 📢 There is no 32B version of the model 🫠 So, I setup deepseek-coder-v2:16b with #Ollama and start to use in IntelliJ IDEA for VocabKit #KotlinMultiplatform project 🦙 To help the community, I am writing a Medium article about it now ✍️ Share your idea in comments 💭

Do you use local LLM with Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA? If yes, which one? 👀 I am thinking to use DeepSeek Coder V2 32B for "VocabKit" Kotlin Multiplatform project 🤔 Feel free to share your experience or opinion about it 🤝 #KMP #Kotlin #aicodingassistant #LLM4Code #androiddev #iosdev

Normally my plan was to create an English improvement app VocabKit. Now? I am creating a Compose Desktop project to upload data into the Firebase Database and Storage. 🔥🫠 However, I really like to have this flexibility with KMP and CMP. This tech opens a lot of opportunities. 🎁👀 #KotlinMultiplatform

Just wrapped up Software Architecture Foundations by Allen Holub 🚀 🏗️ Explored: Reactive, Microservices, Microkernel, Monolith, etc. 💸 Wrong architecture = huge maintenance cost over time. 🏢 Your org structure = your code structure (Conway’s Law 👀). www.linkedin.com/learning/sof...

It’s not easy finding devs who work with Kotlin Multiplatform in business—maybe because “KMP Developer” isn’t an official title yet 🫠 So, I created a LinkedIn group for KMP folks to connect & share ideas, posts 🙌 www.linkedin.com/groups/13189... #AndroidDev #Kotlin #KotlinMultiplatform #iOSDev

Finally, we can set Project view as default in Android Studio. This is really nice if you develop Kotlin Multiplatform project in Android Studio 🛠️📱 #AndroidDev #Kotlin #KotlinMultiplatform #AndroidStudio #iOSDev

I decided to create a Compose Multiplatform desktop app to upload my vocabulary list with all details into Firebase Firestore for VocabKit Kotlin Multiplatform project. This is my first time to touch KMP Desktop, so I feel like an Alien tourist 👽🛸🌎 #Kotlin #Firebase #Desktop #KMP #CMP

Seems I need to create a new project 🫠

How do you upload large data to #Firebase Firestore? Such as you need to add 10 products and their details. Do you create them one by one? I look for different approaches, so feel free to share 🙌🤠 #AndroidDev #Kotlin #Google #MobileDev

How ofter do you update versions of your dependencies in libs.version.toml file of your Kotlin Multiplatform project? 🔄👀 There are my updates for VocabKit 🚀 #AndroidDev #Kotlin #KotlinDev #KMPDev #SoftwareDevelopment #GitHub

KMP plugin gives error for Android Studio Otter Canary 4 🐝 Plugin 'Kotlin Multiplatform' (version '0.9-251.26094-AS-85') is not compatible with the current version of the IDE, because it requires build 251.* or older but the current build is AI-252.25557.131 🫠 #Kotlin #Gradle #AndroidDev

⏰ Tomorrow I will share my new article and ofcourse it will be about #KotlinMultiplatform and @vocabkit.bsky.social 📱It will be one of the longest ones from my Medium articles because of screenshots 🖼️ A clue, the topic will be related with gradle. Any guess? 👀 #KMP #CMP #Kotlin #Composep

🚀 Tried integrating @revenuecat.com into the Android side of my Kotlin Multiplatform @vocabkit.bsky.social app. Stuck 2 days with credential errors 🚨 Turns out you MUST upload a signed build to Google Play (event a dummy one). After 15 mins → all approved ✅ #KMP #buildinpublic #Kotlin #shipaton2025

⌨️ Working on @vocabkit.bsky.social bottom bar with Haze library by @chrisbanes.me As expected, position of extension function is crucial. 👀 Use hazeSource firstly for smooth colour update 🎨 Here is example, thanks @sinasamaki.com article 🤝 #KMP #KotlinMultiplatform #buildinpublic #Kotlin #CMP

I noticed there is a hackathon #Shipaton by @revenuecat.bsky.social and joining time is between Aug 1st - Sep 30th. I am not sure if I can finish KMP + CMP app @vocabkit.bsky.social during this period but I will try 💪🙂 Join the newsletter today to be notified when app is ready! #buildinpublic 🚀

I shared the survey in many places, such as: X, Instagram and this LinkedIn Group. I am really happy to see that Firebase is winner. 🏆 I wrote some articles about KMP + Firebase, and it was complex. I think this will be great 🔥🚀 What do you think? #Kotlin #KMP #Firebase #Google #AndroidDev #iOSDev

If job is done, I don’t care how many hours people work. I trust people. Therefore, I support remote working. Micromanagers should aware that they put more stress on their shoulders than developers’ shoulders. Also, work env. becomes more toxic. Don’t burn forest because of bugs.

I do not understand why Apple gives late responses about Apple Developer enrollment related questions. Has anyone experienced this kind of issues with Apple? 🍎❓ #Apple #AppleDev #iOSDev #iOS #Xcode

Let's give a vote to have the official Kotlin Multiplatform support for Firebase 🔥🗳️ #AndroidDev #iOSDev #KMP #Kotlin #AndroidStudio #Xcode firebase.uservoice.com/forums/94842...
