iOS Setup Example

Complete iOS integration example.

[Placeholder: Insert screenshot of DevView running in an iOS app. Use a device frame if relevant.]

Prerequisites

  • Xcode 15 or newer
  • Minimum iOS 16.0
  • Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform configured

Step 1: Add Dependencies

Add DevView and required modules to your shared module's build.gradle.kts: 

dependencies {
    implementation(projects.devview)
    implementation(projects.devviewFeatureflip)
    implementation(projects.devviewAnalytics)
    implementation(projects.devviewNetworkmock)
}

Step 2: SwiftUI ContentView Setup

import SwiftUI
import shared
struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        ComposeView()
            .ignoresSafeArea()
    }
}
struct ComposeView: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
    func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> UIViewController {
        Main_iosKt.MainViewController()
    }
    func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UIViewController, context: Context) {}
}

Step 3: Register Modules and Add DevView (Kotlin)

@Composable
fun App() {
    var isDevViewOpen by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
    val modules = rememberModules {
        module(FeatureFlip)
        module(Analytics)
        module(NetworkMock)
        // Add custom modules if needed
    }
    DevView(
        devViewIsOpen = isDevViewOpen,
        closeDevView = { isDevViewOpen = false },
        modules = modules
    )
}

Step 4: Test and Customise

  • Run your app on a simulator or real device
  • Open DevView using your chosen trigger (e.g., button, gesture)
  • Customise modules and theming as needed

Troubleshooting

  • If DevView does not appear, check your composable tree and state logic
  • For build errors, verify dependency versions and Gradle configuration
  • For module issues, ensure all modules are registered and initialised before rendering DevView
  • For iOS-specific issues, check Compose Multiplatform and DataStore compatibility
