Last week I attended the February edition of @londroid over @OctopusEnergy to catch up with the Android community. 🤖 ⚡️ 🐙 As well as admiring the office decorations I also learnt alot about Automotive Apps and Kotlin Multiplatform. Here is what I took away from the evening: 🚗 Android Automotive OS is an operating system designed for the car! It prioritises safe driving by using a template system, enforcing a consistent user interface across apps. No custom UI or animations here. 🚫 🖼️ Compose Multiplatform is a framework used to create shared UI across multiple platforms. It provides UI for Android, iOS, Web & Desktop. It's based on Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. 📡 Ktor is a Kotlin framework supporting both http client and web applications. Its modular and plugin based approach makes it an ideal framework for picking and choosing features based on your own requirements. #androiddev #androidautomotive #kotlinmultiplatform

@darryl_bayliss That's cool. Where's your data coming from?

I have a new blog post out. It's about a couple of improvements I made to evbuddy.io when opening Apple Maps. 🗺️📍⚡️ Check it out over at: darrylbayliss.net/interacting-wi… 😀 #webdevelopment #mapping #electriccharging

@dctanner Where do I reply with issues that I encounter?

@darryl_bayliss @dittolive @ContentAuth @senagbe is doing some interesting stuff with kmp and rust. You can also check Iroh in the ipfs space.

One thing I've noticed over the past year is companies building SDKs using Rust. Alot of the reasons seem to be around cross platform compatability, including Mobile. I know @dittolive and @ContentAuth went down this route. I wonder if there are more? 🤔 #rustlang #mobiledev

Congrats to the @kotlin team, the community, and, of course, the @TouchlabHQ team. Can't believe we're here. 6 years since the KotlinConf 2017 announcement. Let's go! 🚀🚀🚀

The mobile mapping market is set to grow from $35.5B to $87.7B by 2028. Driving that growth is the demand for smart cities, resource management & environmental monitoring. @darryl_bayliss shares this impact & a guide on how to use #jetpackcompose for maps. bit.ly/3FYtw3P

This week I had fun @londroid, discussing the future impact of Mobile Mapping on various industries. 🗺️ 📍 📱 I also shared how you can leverage the technology using Google Maps with Jetpack Compose. Check out the recording here: youtube.com/watch?v=FSpP5D… #AndroidDev #JetpackCompose #Maps

At the core of forward-thinking engineering, there's community & knowledge sharing. Thank you @Londroid. Thanks to @letsriseup_uk, @darryl_bayliss & @perpetumdesign for bringing insight into Jetpack Compose & Kotlin Multiplatform. Join the community here➡️meetup.com/android/

@alexstyl ChatGPT is a great way to get you started. From code to blog post. And then it's much easier to iterate

I used to have this phobia. Whenever I was about to create something – anything – like an app, article, talk, I would freeze looking at the blank screen. It's a moment before starting anything where all the self doubts hit you in the face. 'This will suck 100%' or 'no one will like this', all in one go. And the worst thing is if you keep holding on those kind of thoughts it only gets worse. The only way to fight this I found which works every single time is actually starting. Kind of obvious I know, but it took me years to be comfortable around this. What I tend to do is start with the simplest 'bit' of the overall picture I can finish. Building an app – start with a button. Writing an article – write the very first sentence. Preparing a talk – introduce yourself. It's waaay simpler to iterate on what exists in front of you, instead of trying to figure out the entire picture in your head
