What is the reason for @Parcelize still being experimental? When will it become stable? Are there still some bugs that needs to be fixed?

[gildor]

There is some work from Google’s side (and particularly by Jake Wharton) on stabilization of Parcelize and extracting it to a separate Gradle plugin

looks that it still will be Android Extensions plugin

thanks!

it works pretty well btw, only painpoint is you can only access the CREATOR object by exposing it to Kotlin from a Java class.

It will move out of the extensions plugin eventually. There's some complexity in doing so
