## Talks

**************************************************************
App of Theseus; Incrementally adopting Kotlin Multiplatform
**************************************************************
This is the story of how we are incrementally adopting Kotlin Multiplatform to Australia's PSCore public safety platform that helps frontline officers in keeping communities safe. It is a story of overcoming challenges in threading the needle between a rewrite and a refactor. A story of fighting the tools and expanding the breadth of technical skills across multiple stacks. A story of sharing business logic and shared infrastructure between Android, iOS, desktop and the web.

Speaker: Isuru Rajapakse:
