02/19/2024, 5:23 PMWhat’s complicated about it? Multiplatform-Settings is about as simple as a key-value storage library can get. I’ve used it in many apps, and have never had any issues. The documentation looks like a lot, but that’s just because it’s a rare case of an OSS library that’s actually documented well 😅
For the simplest use cases, use the no-arg module. The one dependency and the following snippet (taken from the docs) is all you need
Copy code
val settings: Settings = Settings()
settings.putInt("key", 3)
settings["key"] = 3👍 1
