I'm currently developing a FOSS ride-sharing platform, using Kotlin for both the frontend and backend in a monolithic architecture. I hope to transition to a P2P model in later stages.

Firstly, I hope you have access to the KMP project wizard. If not, please use the following link. To utilize Ktor as a client on the frontend, you'll need to add the dependencies listed below.

  • Under libs.versions.toml add ktor version
  • Now under libraries
  • Last step under composeApp/build.gradle.kts
  • If you use serialization library just add the plugin as well
