Add support for iOS devices using Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) #3416
Description
Summary
This issue proposes expanding the "Ground" Android application to iOS using Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP). This will allow the team to preserve a majority of existing business logic while meeting the high-performance requirements for geospatial rendering.
Key Highlights
- Room Persistence: Room now offers KMP support, allowing for the reuse of existing database schemas and DAO interfaces across platforms.
- Dependency Injection: A migration from Hilt to Koin is necessary, as Hilt’s tight coupling with Android components renders it incompatible with KMP.
- UI Framework: To enable cross-platform UI sharing, all remaining XML layouts must be converted to Jetpack Compose.
- Setup XCode project and iOS infrastructure.
