  "account": "StreetComplete, an open-source project, has entered public beta for iOS. The project, originally an Android app, is now being developed through a Kotlin-based multiplatform approach. This allows for shared code between Android and iOS, reducing platform-specific code and maintenance efforts. The UI code is being gradually migrated to Jetpack Compose Multiplatform, which is an iOS-compatible version of Jetpack Compose. The project board outlines the steps and tasks required for the iOS port, and contributions from the community are welcome. The current state of the project is continuously updated in the project board. To contribute, take on tasks from the board, learn about Jetpack Compose and Compose Multiplatform, sponsor the project, or help with maintenance and issue triage.",
