" summary

Kotlin 2.2.20 ships experimental Swift export while production teams rely on third‑party fixes: Sky (Swift‑Kotlin Interop Enhancer) restores sealed‑class exhaustivity, default args and coroutine mapping; KMP Native Coroutines / KMP Observable ViewModel provide proper cancellation and convert suspend/flow to Swift async/AsyncSequence; Compose on iOS uses Compose UIViewController ↔ UIHostingController bridge to embed UI both ways; Swift implementations of Kotlin interfaces are injected via Koin; build options are XCFramework/Swift Package; CI tooling includes XcodeKotlin, JetBrains KMP plugin and Fastlane + match.
