Source Repository

This sample app is available at https://github.com/skiptools/skipapp-travelposters.git ↗, which can be checked out and run once Skip is installed.

TravelPosters

This is a demonstration of using a shared Skip Lite dual-platform Swift model library to power both an iOS and an Android app.

Workflow

Iterate on both the travel-posters-model shared model package and the iOS app by opening the TravelPosters.xcworkspace Xcode workspace.

Iterate on the Android app by opening the Android/settings.gradle.kts file in Android Studio.

To donate the latest travel-posters-model shared model code to the Android app:

$ cd travel-posters-model
$ skip export
$ cp .build/skip-export/*-release* ../Android/lib/release/
$ cp .build/skip-export/*-debug* ../Android/lib/debug/

There are many ways to automate this process, from simple scripting to git submodules to publishing Skip’s transpiled Android travel-posters-model output to a local Maven repository. Use whatever system fits your team’s workflow best.

Building & Running

Use Xcode to build and run the iOS app and the shared travel-posters-model package.

Use Android Studio to build and run the Android app. On the Android side, please note the following:

• You must “Sync Project with Gradle Files” in Android Studio after updating the exported libraries.
• Using an exported library function which has transitive dependencies on additional Android libraries can cause a runtime error. You must ensure that all transitive dependencies are in your own app’s build.gradle.kts.
