Hello Guys! I recently created an application and finished it for Android. Everything is working fine but the people are now asking for an iOS version too. Since I am an Android Developer I looked into KMP but however Appwrite does not have any Client SDK for Kotlin. What should I do since currently I don't know Apple Development and was looking into KMP oriented approach?

Summary

Developers are discussing struggles with implementing Appwrite on Android due to the need for Context object, lack of OAuth support, and concerns about integrating with iOS using KMP. It's mentioned that using the Android/Kotlin SDK for email/password login could be an alternative. The suggestion is made to potentially consider implementing OAuth for iOS using the Appwrite Swift SDK.

I think you will need to write some part in swift with the appwrite swift SDK for OAuth

If you don't want to implement OAuth, maybe the android/kotlin SDK could work for the email/password login

But I'm not sure

The Android SDK needs Context object to initialise the Appwrite Client
