What's the best library for sharing a pre-populated sqlite database in Kotlin Multiplatform?

[Hristijan]

SQLDelight?

I can't find information about shipping pre-populated sqlite databases with SqlDelight.
Can you point to any documentation?

The whole discussion has lots of useful information

It seems quite complex and it doesn't support desktop or web.
Given I have a database with 10000 rows and 5 fields (the sqlite file size is less than 300KB),
would it makes sense to create a Kotlin data class with 5 fields, hardcode it as a list of 10000 elements, and querying the data using Kotlin higher functions?
Something like:

val cities by lazy { listOf(
   City("Paris","FRA",34.5,54.6,true)
   City("London","GBR",33.1,51.3,true)
   City("Berlin","GER",37.4,59.0,true)
   ......
)}

Does anyone have experience hardcoding in Kotlin this amount of data?

SQLDelight supports all platforms

I mean, pre-populated databases require copying the Sqlite file around. That discussion only talked about Android and iOS. Not sure what's the procedure in Desktop and Web.
