A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Within my root build.gradle.kts I want to enable strict explicit API mode, but only for Kotlin projects, how can I do this?

Sorry I wasn't clear, that isn't the part I don't know how to do, its how to apply this only to kotlin projects from within `allProjects`

`allProjects` is <https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/sharing_build_logic_between_subprojects.html#sec:convention_plugins_vs_cross_configuration|best avoided, if possible>. You're better off having <https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/sharing_build_logic_between_subprojects.html#sec:convention_plugins|convention plugins> that you can load into individual projects that want them.

That being said, you can probably do what you want using ideas found <https://stackoverflow.com/a/46208792|here>.

Looks like convention plugins is the way to go
