Most of the multi-platform solutions available today focus on the user interface, the very top layer, of the software architecture. While we already have multi-platform solutions that focus on the lower parts of the stack, they are usually quite complex (native C/C++) or compromise on things like type-safety or performance (JavaScript, etc.).
In this session we will look at how Kotlin Multi-Platform tries to solve this challenge in a way that avoids the traditional complexity of native C/C++ and at the same time retains the type safety and performance we want. The focus will be on building the foundation for applications targeting Android, iOS and the Web, but we'll also look at other aspects such as backend and embedded solutions provided by Kotlin.
