Anyone got any favorite multiplatform libraries that wrap shared prefs on Android and the iOS equivalent?

So that one looked overcomplicated lol

even their sample seemed overwrought

You used in an app?

What’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

val settings: Settings = Settings()
settings.putInt("key", 3)
settings["key"] = 3

Hah, thanks! I guess that's on me; when I see a wall o' text I tend to "tune out"

I'm glad others aren't so lazy
