.NET Meetup Newcastle - Aug 2025
Utility Kotlin
For the past 10+ years I've been building a Utility app to speed up day to day tasks. It started with a VB.NET version for encoding/decoding HTML to help with log files in Symantec Workflow. It grew with other functionality include SQL generation etc. From that I used the opportunity to build a macOS app to try out my Objective-C ability on a desktop app, instead of the iOS apps I'd been building. To make it more accessible I created a Web version then swapped to WPF and finally a Blazor one a few years after that. Having switched back to Java and now Kotlin dev, in the past couple of years, it seemed a good opportunity to try my hand at Kotlin Multiplatform. Having seen the power of WASM with Blazor it was a no brainer. Hopefully I can actually find the time to build multiple apps but for now I just wanted a web version with the first utility being a Duration parser.
