It looks like androidx lifecycle supports KMP now. https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/lifecycle#2.8.0-alpha02

The core Lifecycle APIs in Lifecycle, LifecycleOwner, LifecycleObserver, Lifecycle.State, Lifecycle.Event, and LifecycleRegistry are now shipped in artifacts compatible with Kotlin Multiplatform.

We need to wait until all targets are supported. Also I need check some details like how it will work with Decompose. And what are the actual benefits compared to the current solution. Might not get to the 2.0 release.

Sure. Maybe related to this discussion: https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1043

We'll also need to wait for an official announcement, and appearance in the Multiplatform Jetpack libraries list.

It seems that the page you mentioned lacks of maintenance. KMP libraries such as Paging, Lifecycle, ViewModel aren't listed.

arkivanov commented 3 months ago

I've checked with folks already, the page is up to date. I think those libraries are intentionally not listed yet.

PMARZV commented 3 months ago

any guesses why??

arkivanov commented 3 months ago

Nope. I think we just need to wait.

The KMP version of AndroidX Lifecycle with additional targets is now published by JetBrains. However, some targets required by Essenty are still not supported. Currently missing targets are: watchos and tvos.

All required targets are now supported in the KMP version of AndroidX Lifecycle. Will try soon-ish.
