TModeler is a data engine-oriented framework for building data-centric applications. It lets you model, store, query, observe and (optionally) synchronize and secure your business data from a single Kotlin model definition, on Android, JVM, Web (Kotlin/Wasm) and, progressively, iOS — and from Flutter and React front-ends through a thin bridge.

This repository is the official Kotlin Multiplatform distribution of TModeler. A sibling distribution exists for C++: tmodeler-cpp.

The UI layer never owns business logic or SQL: models, rules and persistence live in TModeler; Android (Compose/Views), Flutter and React are only views.

• Typed models — declare fields (TString, TInt, TDate, lists, relations, files…) with plain Kotlin delegates.
• Full CRUD — save(), delete(), Tms for centralized access; offline-first by design.
• Relations — one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many, with the same object appearing several times in a list.
• Queries — filters, ordering, pagination, joins, aggregates, and reactive TFlow lists.
• Threading contract — TGate guarantees data operations run in the right context.
• Files & media — managed storage attached to models.
• Features & Tnc — one server call = one TFeature; instant notification channels.
• Pluggable engines — TSyncEngine, TSecurityEngine, TAiEngine: TModeler works on its own, extensions are optional.
• Reflection-free on the Web — a KSP plugin (tmodeler-ksp) generates the model registry.

Using an AI coding assistant? Point it to AGENTS.md (also published as llms.txt): it contains everything needed to install TModeler and start implementing, step by step.

Start here — the guides are self-sufficient (no need to read the source code).

Read 01 first, then the guide of your platform.

TModeler is published on Maven Central (group co.tamboai) for Android, JVM and Web (Kotlin/Wasm). Requirements: JDK 17 or 21 and Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA (see §4 of the getting-started guide). Node.js is needed for web only.

In your project:

repositories {
    google()
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("co.tamboai:TModeler:1.0.1")   // Gradle picks the Android, JVM or Wasm variant
}

Building from source (contributors only):

git clone https://github.com/eclipse-tmodeler/tmodeler-kmp.git
cd tmodeler-kmp
./gradlew :shared:publishToMavenLocal :tmodeler-ksp:publishMavenPublicationToMavenLocal   # then add mavenLocal()

Full details (repositories, per-platform dependencies, first start) are in docs/01-tmodeler.md.

• Core test suite — shared/src/jvmTest: ~90 tests on TModeler alone (no extension), organized by learning step: gettingstarted, fields, relations, queries, flow, engines, threads. They double as runnable examples.

  ./gradlew :shared:jvmTest

• Platform apps — tests/ holds one sample app per platform (the TmChat reference chat):

  Folder	Platform
  tests/android-native	Android native
  tests/flutter	Flutter
  tests/react	React (web, Kotlin/Wasm)
  tests/jvm	JVM
  tests/ios	iOS

TModeler is complete on its own. Synchronization, encryption and AI are optional modules (TBridge, TVault, TAi), plugged in through engines (TSyncEngine, TSecurityEngine, TAiEngine) and available on request at contact@tamboai.co or tamboai.co; see §17 of the getting-started guide.
