Yes, Kotlin DSL does not support new multiplatform yet. And in general it wasn’t production ready for quite some time while ktor was being developed 🙂

And the Kotlin DSL and plugins are much more sensitive to the Gradle version you’re running than the Groovy DSL is. I keep trying the Kotlin DSL and keep walking away. Partially because I know the Groovy one quite well, and IntelliJ provides good assistance as long as you’re using the
-all
version of the wrapper. And partially because I can get it to work in the Groovy easily, and I have things I’d rather focus on… I suspect similar for the ktor team.
