<@U8PRY47UY> re scripting on android.  Great question !  No Answer :disappointed:
Ignorant Guess: Maybe -- if you dont use the JSR232 interface ??  (just the native one).
Ignorant count-guess: No idea if even the embeded scripting compiler will run on android

I tried this a few months back, and the embedded compiler was very unhappy on Android.

<@ULLMZCT8Q> do you remember, what exactly it was unhappy about?

IIRC, it seemed like it was expecting a Java SDK and not the Android SDK, so it was expecting some classes and methods that did not exist. If you're interested in trying to get `kotlin-compiler-embeddable` and related libraries working in Android, let me know, and I can try to reproduce my experiment.

<@ULLMZCT8Q> I’m interested, but I’m not sure that we have enough resources to do it in the near future. Therefor it would be nice to have an issue in YouTrack, so it would be easier to come back to it when time permits.
Could you, please, file one, preferable with some motivation on why this could be useful.

OK, I filed <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-33560>, though I'm not certain if it is categorized properly (in part because the narrowest I seem to be able to do is "Kotlin")...
