"The Movie" is a Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM) application that allows users to discover trending movies, search for movies, and view movie details. It showcases how to build cross-platform applications with shared business logic and platform-specific UIs.

• View a list of currently trending movies.
• Search for movies by title.
• View detailed information about a selected movie.
• Caching of data for offline access and improved performance.

• Kotlin: Primary language for shared business logic.
• Coroutines: For asynchronous programming (managing background tasks, network requests).
• Flow: For reactive data streams, especially for data from network/database to ViewModels.
• Ktor Client: For making HTTP requests to The Movie Database (TMDb) API.
  • Content Negotiation (kotlinx.serialization) for JSON parsing.
  • Auth (Bearer Token) for API authentication.
  • Logging for network request/response inspection.
  • Resources for type-safe routing.
• SQLDelight: For local database storage (caching movie data).
• Multiplatform DataStore: For simple key-value storage (last sync timestamps).
• Kotlinx Serialization: For JSON parsing and serialization.
• Kotlinx DateTime: For multiplatform date and time manipulation.
• Manual Dependency Injection
• Jetpack Compose, SwiftUI: For building the native UI declaratively.
• Material 3 Design: Modern UI components and theming.
• Android Jetpack:
  • ViewModel: For UI-related data holder, lifecycle-aware.
  • Navigation Compose: For navigating between screens/composables.
• Coil: For asynchronously loading and displaying movie poster images.

Create the local.properties file in the project's root folder. This file contains your API key:

apiKey=your_api_key

To build and run in iOS device, paste yout apiKey to AppConfig in shared\src\iosMain\... deirectory

• ✅ Get the trending movies for
• ✅ Trending movies should work offline after loading once (refresh after 24 hours)
• ✅ Search movie when the search field text is not empty
• ✅ Show all movie information on detail sreen.
• ✅ Allow any hyperlinks to be opened.
• ✅ Work offline if movie details are opened once before (refresh after 24 hours)
• ✅ Display content edge-to-edge
• ✅ Use the latest Jetpack architecture recommendations by Google
• ✅ Shared code is iOS-friendly
• ✅ Create Unit Tests to make sure caching validation is handled correctly.
• ✅ Create a simple UI Test.
• ✅ Error message handling (offline/online/failed API calls with specific screen).
• ✅ Create a simple iOS app.
