Hi, is there a kmp example project with JS target using classes with kotlinx.datetime types as properties like Instant which are exported to a TS definition using js-joda? (I‘m new to kmp)

Hi, Mira.
Unfortunately, if the library (like kotlinx.datetime) didn't mark its types with a special @JsExport annotation, those types would not be visible in TS definitions.
We consider the problem and try to find a solution for such an issue.

Thanks, Artem! Is there a workaround for this issue? Something to configure manually?

You can write a wrapper for the class you are interested in.
Imagine there is a class Foo which is not exported from a third-party library.
You can write something like this:

package my.own.project

import third.party.library.Foo as LibraryFoo

@JsExport
class Foo(private val foo: LibraryFoo) {
 ...
}

And work with such a class in your project.
So, your service which returns Foo will be available from JS to interact with all the methods inside Foo

Thanks, will try that 👌🏼
