A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I'm sorry if this is asked often, and I'm too lazy to look, so tell me to fuck off and search if so:

Is Klaxon better than `kotlinx-serialization`? For what reasons should I use one over the other?

personally, I like Klaxon more than I do kotlinx-serialization, not only because ks has caused so many headaches and pain points on integration (with both IDE and the actual project) but because it's a little more frictionless when it comes to serialising and deserialising. Only thing is, there isn't a klaxon implementation for js yet, so MPP is a bit out of the window, whilst I think ks has support for all kotlin targets

Kotlinx-serialization requires plugins, and I couldn't work out how to get them all to work with my Kotlin gradle build script.

I also tried Moshi, but couldn't persuade it to handle polymorphic serialization/deserialization.
