Hello to all. I have a question about the following dependencies:

implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib")
implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8")
implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7")

I recently read the we should use the first one on Android as the latter ones contain it and do not provide any value on Android and the last one also has features that are not supported yet on Android ( at least for minSdkVersion: 21) . Is that true? What are your suggestions?

Just use jdk8

[jw]

your minSdkVersion has little to do with it, since even with a low minSdkVersion you still sometimes write code that only runs on newer APIs where extensions on new types might come in handy. R8 will remove any unused code

Ok thank you 🙂
