The kotlinx-datetime library, the api is very similar to java.time.

Are they somehow related?
Do I need to worry about desugaring on Android? (java.time needs to be desugared via gradle config on android)

[Michael Krussel]

The JVM implementation uses the java.time library, so it has the same desugaring requirements.

so

dependencies {
    // For AGP 7.4+
    coreLibraryDesugaring 'com.android.tools:desugar_jdk_libs:2.0.3'

in side androidMain { .. }?

[ursus]

now that I think about it .. is that only necessary at app level? (not every kmp module?)
