Just curious but what happened with kotlin namespaces? Is it still in development or was it ultimately abandoned as feature? If it was is there an article where I can read about why? It seemed to be in discussion around 2 years ago around when Kotlin 1.4 was out (See linked video), but I can't really find much on it in the most recent forum posts and blogs. So far the consensus from what I've read is that the closest thing to a top-level namespace is using an

object

. Although, I've also read that, that can add quite a bit of overhead with the singleton that it generates.

What are out and in, and how do we use them without even knowing. 👉 https://kt.academy/article/ak-variance In this article, @marcinmoskala takes a closer look at the advanced features of Kotlin. This piece is a chapter from the Advanced Kotlin book available on Leanpub. 📖 https://leanpub.com/advanced_kotlin

Update Regarding Kotlin/Native Targets Kotlin/Native supports many targets thanks to its LLVM backend – 27 as of 1.8.0, to be exact!

Maintain and update platform […]

27! dang!

The K2 Compiler is going stable in Kotlin 2.0 We’ve been working on a new frontend for the Kotlin compiler (code-named “K2”) for quite a while. The frontend is the part of the compiler that parses your code and performs the semantic analysis, data flow analysis, call resolution, and type inference. This is the part of the compiler that you, the developer, interact with […]

I want to share Gradle Plugin for Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile, I’ve created: https://dev.to/ttypic/swift-klib-gradle-plugin-is-out-4k2n It designed to make it easier to integrate and manage Swift sources in KMM shared module

I wrote a blog post on how to handle the Lombok @Builder annotation when converting a Java project to Kotlin: https://code.gematik.de/tech/2023/01/11/no-builder-in-kotlin.html The target audience is less people who are already very familiar with Kotlin but their Java dev colleagues, who only had a 3-day Kotlin training, because not all patterns have a 1-to-1 mapping to Kotlin.
