For persistent caching on ktor client we got FileStorage for Andorid and JVM. There is nothing ready-made to be used for iOS, right?

What would the best approach be here? Implementing CacheStorage on iOS seems cumbersome, and there are APIs for configuring caching for URLSession.

Yes, there is no such out-of-the-box solution for Darwin.

I think configuring caching with NSURLSessionConfiguration is a good idea. The Darwin engine config has methods for configuring the session and its configuration.

I’m implementing the Ktor Caching API but for KMP.

Thanks, but I would prefer using the native APIs in iOS first. We also want the cache managed by the system

Yes, so the @Aleksei Tirman [JB] solution is the best way for you
