LIFE4DDR Mobile App

This is the repository for the LIFE4DDR mobile apps. This app is written in Compose Multiplatform and is the result of migrating the old LIFE4DDR codebase into a more modern Kotlin stack.

• /composeApp is for code that will be shared across your Compose Multiplatform applications. It contains several subfolders:

  • commonMain is for code that’s common for all targets.
  • Other folders are for Kotlin code that will be compiled for only the platform indicated in the folder name. For example, if you want to use Apple’s CoreCrypto for the iOS part of your Kotlin app, the iosMain folder would be the right place for such calls. Similarly, if you want to edit the Desktop (JVM) specific part, the jvmMain folder is the appropriate location.

• /iosApp contains iOS applications. Even if you’re sharing your UI with Compose Multiplatform, you need this entry point for your iOS app. This is also where you should add SwiftUI code for your project.

• /server is for the Ktor server application. This currently is not being used.

• /shared is for the code that will be shared between all targets in the project. The most important subfolder is commonMain.

Build and Run Android Application

To build and run the development version of the Android app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or build it directly from the terminal:

• on macOS/Linux

  ./gradlew :composeApp:assembleDebug

• on Windows

  .\gradlew.bat :composeApp:assembleDebug

Build and Run Desktop (JVM) Application

To build and run the development version of the desktop app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or run it directly from the terminal:

• on macOS/Linux

  ./gradlew :composeApp:run

• on Windows

  .\gradlew.bat :composeApp:run

Build and Run Server

To build and run the development version of the server, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or run it directly from the terminal:

• on macOS/Linux

  ./gradlew :server:run

• on Windows

  .\gradlew.bat :server:run

Build and Run iOS Application

To build and run the development version of the iOS app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or open the /iosApp directory in Xcode and run it from there.
