Hi everyone. I have a question about Kotlin Unsigned types, which are still marked as experimental language feature. Do you think they are feasible for use in a multiplatform Android/iOS project using shared module written Kotlin Native? 

Thanks. 

&gt; Implementation of unsigned types heavily depends on <https://github.com/Kotlin/KEEP/blob/master/proposals/inline-classes.md|inline classes> feature. Namely, each unsigned class is actually an inline class, which uses the signed counterpart value as a storage.

Is this good or bad for your use case? :)

Well, I have used unsigned types until now on Kotlin/JVM and now I wanted to ask if porting same code to Kotlin/Native and compiling it for iOS target will work well. I mean - I can test it myself if it will work but I was curious about some hidden implications of usage Unsigned types on iOS.
