IndiaAIFounders — Android TV dev here. I got Compose Multiplatform running on Apple TV and wrote up how.

If you build for Android TV and have ever been asked "can we do Apple TV too", this might be useful.

I have ten years on Android and Android TV. Our app went Views, then Jetpack Compose, then Compose Multiplatform so a small team could ship phone, TV, desktop, iOS and tvOS from one UI codebase. tvOS was the gap: JetBrains does not support it, and SwiftUI's focus system does not give you the control you are used to from Compose on Android TV.

So I added the tvOS target to the Compose Multiplatform fork myself, and ported androidx.tv:tv-material to multiplatform along the way. Your existing tv-material code, focus handling and D-pad logic carry over. The Siri Remote arrives as key events, the same way a D-pad does.

First post of the series is the high-level story: what tvOS actually is, how the port was ordered module by module, which part was hardest, and how to try it with one Gradle plugin.
