also I think I'm the only one on the planet using java.time.Duration, so perhaps a pair of value: Long, unit: TimeUnit is better.

neat, I hope we see more of this.

I'm also wondering if kotlin can create one thats #multiplatform, seems like it shouldnt be too hard to use Java.time.duration on JVM and a string similarly formatted on js.

One of the reasons I like it so much is that we have a couple user entered timeout fields, and for test data we can use val <http://Int.ms|Int.ms> get() = Duration.ofMillis(this), which makes for neat test data entry in kotlin

I was trying to write a multiplatform time library so I can write things for java.time and use them in JS

I anticipate it will take a while though
