ATOM (A Touch of Multiplatform) Episode #6

Welcome to episode 6 of A Touch of Multiplatform (ATOM)! This is our podcast dedicated to Kotlin Multiplatform technology in production and produced for you by JetBrains and Touchlab.

In this episode of A Touch of Multiplatform, we sat down to talk with Volley’s Josh Shin (along with special guest Suzu the cat). Josh talks about his own path into mobile development and about how Volley has approached adopting and scaling Kotlin Multiplatform, especially from the iOS side of things.
