A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

So, is this library going to go into development again soon? I believe one of the main things holding it up was the serialization library work, which has now reached full 1.0 release. The io library got mentioned (very briefly) during the 1.4 event, so I know it isn't forgotten.

It's currently listed in the "postponed for later" section of the roadmap, which AFAIK means that it won't be addressed for at lesat the current 6-mo cycle

I’ve been playing with caffine and korio. They look decent:

• <https://github.com/korlibs/korio/>
• <https://github.com/caffeine-mgn/pw.binom.io>

<@ULU4CLNNL> one year later... how far did any of these take you ? what are your usecases? I recently caught sight of caffeine and it has had a lot of steam lately.

i have been porting some old java NIO code and took and example from caffeine but I found that the NIO code requires a bit much translation using what's given.

the tooling that surrounds kotlin native makes porting java IO almost impossible for a medium size codebase.

I started out pursuing an epoll port out of the JVM but along the way i noticed the linux kernel uring in 5.x closes the gap between network IO and file IO async

I have hit the reset button on porting my jvm to just work on some io_uring samples and gt them ported.

I'm using okio in my new multiplatform projects and it's been fantastic. <https://github.com/square/okio>

i think i bailed out wheni read "Note that Okio doesn’t yet support sockets on Kotlin/Native or Kotlin/JS."
