You can do desktop too!
summary
Toolbox App migrates its business logic converted from C++ to Kotlin and replaces a browser JS UI with Compose Multiplatform, integrating coroutines, Skia rendering and Lottie animations. Migration happens on-the-fly, releases ship every few months since 2021 and it serves millions of users. Compose enables structural UI tests that simulate clicks and advance coroutine clocks instead of brittle screenshots, and the resulting desktop builds run cross‑OS with native font rendering quirks handled.
