is there a way to define localized strings in an XML file in the CommonMain resources folder, and access the strings (just within the CommonMain, as it’s for a shared KMPViewModel) similarly to how it happens in Android?

did you try moko resources?
https://github.com/icerockdev/moko-resources
It is a great library and supports localisation

+1 Moko resources, we are using this successfully

It seems Moko focuses on making CommonMain resources available to the Android and iOS platform specific code, by merging them into the platform-specific localization systems.
I am just interested in using resources in CommonMain. I was wondering if KMP had by default for CommonMain a similar res mechanism of the Android framework. But I guess I am asking too much.

We achieved this in CommonMain by doing some platform component injection into the common space during App Startup.
...never the prettiest approach, but it works.
