│ User & Developer Docs │ >Architecture >>>Modern Android Development (MAD) The app follows modern Android development practices, built on top of a shared Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) Core: • |!KMP Modules:|! Business logic (|BT383838|Fdddcore:domain|f|b), data sources (|BT383838|Fdddcore:data|f|b, |BT383838|Fdddcore:database|f|b, |BT383838|Fdddcore:datastore|f|b), and communications (|BT383838|Fdddcore:network|f|b, |BT383838|Fdddcore:ble|f|b) are entirely platform-agnostic, targeting Android and Compose Desktop. • |!UI:|! JetBrains Compose Multiplatform (Material 3) using Compose Multiplatform resources. • |!State Management:|! Unidirectional Data Flow (UDF) with ViewModels, Coroutines, and Flow. • |!Dependency Injection:|! Koin with Koin Annotations (K2 Compiler Plugin). • |!Navigation:|! JetBrains Navigation 3 (Multiplatform routing with RESTful deep linking). • |!Data Layer:|! Repository pattern with Room KMP (local DB), DataStore (prefs), and Protobuf (device comms). Protobuf models are consumed from the upstream |BT383838|Fdddorg.meshtastic:protobufs|f|b Maven artifact, pinned in |BT383838|Fdddgradle/libs.versions.toml|f|b. >>>Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) The BLE stack uses a multiplatform interface-driven architecture. Platform-agnostic interfaces live in |BT383838|FdddcommonMain|f|b, utilizing the |!Kable|! multiplatform BLE library to handle device communication across all supported targets (Android, Desktop). This provides a robust, Coroutine-based architecture for reliable device communication while remaining fully KMP compatible. See |_|!|[core/ble/README.md|:/page/blob.mu|g=meshtastic|r=Meshtastic-Android|ref=HEAD|path=core/ble/README.md">mesht for details.

Each module has its own README with details on its responsibilities, API surface, and internal design.

│ core/do.

The app includes a built-in Local TAK Server feature that can be enabled in settings. This runs a loopback-only TLS (mTLS) server on port 8089 so ATAK on the same device can connect directly and route its traffic over the mesh.

│ [!WARNING] Debug and release builds can be installed concurrently. This is solely to enable

│ smoother development, and you should avoid running both apps simultaneously. To ensure proper

│ function, force quit the app not in use.

Note: when building the T383838google flavor locally you will need to supply your own Google Maps Android SDK api key as T383838MAPS_API_KEY in T383838secrets.properties (repo root — create the file if it doesn't exist) in order to use Google Maps. Without it, T383838secrets.defaults.properties supplies a placeholder so the build still succeeds, but map tiles will not load.

e.g.
