Hello kotlin dev! 👋🏽 I recently got my hands on Kotlin Compose Multiplatform, thinking I’d just make a commit or two to test the concept. But honestly? I ended up loving it. The integration is incredibly smooth, the setup is straightforward, and you can build beautiful UI/UX with pretty good performance. I was seriously impressed. So I thought—why not share what I’ve learned? I put together an open GitHub repo how to create a sleek UX/UI, handle API calls, and integrate a local database with RoomDB. Check it out! 🚀 Here’s the open repository: https://github.com/riadmahi/MovieNow

Has anyone here been through the migration process for their libraries from the Legacy Maven OSS to the new Central Publisher Portal? I'm really unclear as to if you can continue to publish , or even if the official gradle maven-publish plugin will even work with the new server. Oh and they're sunsetting the old system in June... https://central.sonatype.org/faq/what-is-different-between-central-portal-and-legacy-ossrh/

Does anyone here have a reference library project that deploys to new Central Portal using Kotlin + Dokka, and Ci/Cd using Github Actions + JReleaser or an alternative?

It's all very early stages, but I've wrapped enough of wlroots (Linux Wayland compositor library) to port the TinyWL example to Kotlin. Bindings are in Java at the moment, but the examples are in Kotlin, likewise the compositor to be built on top of the bindings will also be in Kotlin. Any ideas what one might wanna see from a Wayland compositor on top of JVM are welcome... https://github.com/klozovin/nylon/blob/master/examples/tinywl/src/main/kotlin/Tiny.kt

Hello all ! We at Deezer just open sourced the tool we used internally to generate update dependencies reports from a version catalog. We can now present Caupain, it's a tool available both as a CLI (installable via brew or apt, see the doc) and as a Gradle plugin available on Gradle Plugin Portal. The tool is quick, easy to use, straightforward, and fully coded in Kotlin Multiplatform. We hope it will be of use to some of you, and feel free to open issues or add functionalities if you like it !

👋 Hey everyone - happy Wednesday! We've got some news about what we've been cooking up over at http4k towers... https://http4k.org/news/ai_without_tests_is_just_expensive_random_number_generation/

Hey team! 👋 I just released my first open-source Kotlin library and wanted to share it with you all! kotlin-logging-extensions - Brings Lombok-style automatic logger generation to Kotlin using KSP 🔧 The Problem: Coming from Java, I really missed

@Slf4j

annotation’s simplicity. In Kotlin, you either put loggers at the top-level (breaking “one class per file”) or declare them in every single class (lots of boilerplate). The Solution: Just use

<http://log.info|log.info> { }

directly in any class - no declarations needed!

class UserService {
    fun createUser() {
        <http://log.info|log.info> { "Creating user" } // :sparkles: Works automatically!
    }
}

How it works: Uses Kotlin Symbol Processing (KSP) to generate logger extensions at compile-time. Zero runtime overhead, integrates with kotlin-logging, and works with any package depth. 🔗 GitHub: https://github.com/doljae/kotlin-logging-extensions Still early stage (v0.0.1) but it’s already working well in my projects. Would love to hear your thoughts or feedback if anyone tries it out! #Kotlin #KSP #Logging #OpenSource

Has anyone actually successfully browsed maven snapshots in https://central.sonatype.com/repository/maven-snapshots/? So far it's just blowing up for me.

Hi! I just released KReplica, a code generation tool that seeks to make it easier to manage multiple DTO variants from a single interface: a base DTO, a create request DTO, and a patch request DTO. It can also optionally automatically create value classes and versioned schemas. That said, I think the most useful feature of KReplica is how it generates sealed interfaces. Allowing you to use exhaustive

when

statements to filter through all schema types, filtering by a specific schema version, or filtering by a specific schema variant (e.g. base DTOs). There's a Readme with more info. I hope someone could comment if the project seems interesting and/or if the README is understandable. There's a lot of examples, but just the first two examples are important to understanding it. https://github.com/AvaileDev/KReplica

Hey! Wanted to share the story of how we created a scrapping library in Kotlin https://www.reddit.com/r/Kotlin/comments/1lsnytm/from_python_to_kotlin_why_we_rewrote_our_scraping/

I would like to ask some advice/opinion about making my project ready for the public (KMP, open source of course). It is a green-field, pure-Kotlin, full-stack KMP application framework. It already works and I have pilots running in production since last year, the experiences are good so far. My basic problem is that it is somewhat big (85 K lines Kotlin, 10 K lines Markdown). Documenting and cleaning up everything properly is an immense task and I'm struggling with the decision to do it. My question is not about the feasibility of the project itself, I'm happy to talk about that as well, but that's not the point. What I would like to decide if the effort to make it usable by others would worth it. Please note that the web site is not mobile friendly yet (desktop browser would be the best) and that it is in-development. https://adaptive.fun https://github.com/spxbhuhb/adaptive

Hi all, just wanted to share that I've released a format for KotlinX Serialization for Java Properties files, if anyone's interested ! https://github.com/bishiboosh/properties-serializer

Are you a library developer publishing static resources alongside your Kotlin code? You may have noticed that JVM users can access your library's resources, but other platforms can't. My Gradle plugin KotlinJS Resources now works for all platforms, even Native, and supports Kotlin 2.1.X and 2.2.X. https://gitlab.com/opensavvy/automation/kotlin-js-resources

I made a GH action that allows you to track changes to a specific file in PRs, or just list large files that were modified (or both together). It can be used, for example, to track the growth of an

.apk

and it will also show it when third-party dependencies affect it 📈 Written in Kotlin/JS, using the kotlin-wrappers to interact with GH 🤓 https://github.com/jacobras/size-diff-action

Hi everyone! I would like to introduce my first open source project uml-data-model-processor! Yes it's wrote in Java Maven plugin but I plan to support Gradle, Kotlin and other features. Published on Maven Central Repository! What does it do? Automates generating SQL DDL scripts & Java POJO classes from UML diagrams built in PlantUML. Why use it? • Speeds up database design workflow • Reduces manual coding efforts • Minimizes human error How does it work? Accepts PlantUML files and outputs ready-to-use SQL scripts + POJO classes configured for Spring Data JDBC. Key Features: • Generates schema.sql files • Supports various relationship mappings (one-to-one, etc.) • Enhances productivity during early stages of app development Current Status: MVP-level implementation with ongoing feature expansions planned. Check out the GitHub repo for more info! --- Link to Repo: https://github.com/MikeKirillov/uml-data-model-processor Your feedback is appreciated! Share your thoughts or contribute to its evolution.

Pure Kotlin AMQP/RabbitMQ client. Optimized for coroutines and KMP compatible (could be used with Ktor Native for example) Can’t wait to get your feedback 🥳 https://github.com/guimauvedigital/kourier

Hello! I had the chance to talk with the [thanks.dev](https://thanks.dev) team, and they are rolling out Gradle support to allow sponsoring Gradle powered Open Source projects (so 99% of Kotlin projects, since almost no one is using maven/pom.xml for Kotlin). They are looking for a partner to launch the Gradle support, and since this will have a major impact on Kotlin Open Source, I thought about JetBrains. Anyone at JetBrains I can forward the contact to so this could be studied and made possible? I’m sure this is an opportunity to make Kotlin Open Source grow so much more!
