one silly question but informatic, what is the actual difference between factory and single in Koin?

From the docs

A factory component declaration is a definition that will gives you a new instance each time you ask for this definition

Declaring a singleton component means that Koin container will keep a unique instance of your declared component

https://doc.insert-koin.io/#/koin-core/definitions?id=defining-a-factory

both are creational pattern
