Hi, I saw a kt file with an object inside an object . I would like to know if someone can help me to understand the difference between using the object and a companion object . Is this the right way to use object ?

object Type {
    object USER {
        const val KEY  = "key"
        const val NAME  = "name"
    }
}

Hi Nuno, your example looks OK to me as a way of using `object`s to organise constant values, so that you can easily access them using IDE autocompletion as Type.User.KEY .

Details about object declarations can be found here.
