Now that Arrow is MP. How does optic generation work? In getting started I'm being told to use kapt. That'd work only for JVM wouldn't it?

Hey @than_,

That’s correct. The Arrow guide still recommends kapt since Arrow Meta has not been released yet. It follows an independent cycle but should become available this year too.

I’m not sure if it’s possible yet to consume the Optics plugin from Arrow Meta, it does the same thing as kapt but MPP.

We need to work on a release for it but once it does it should work mpp. I believe there is currently a remaining issue related to where generated sources are placed
