Can <http://java.io|java.io> be used in multiplatform or is there an equivalent kotlin package that I need to use? Or is there a "multiplatform" properties file loader that anybody knows about? Thanks!

No <http://java.io|java.io>
What class do you want to use?

`kotlinx-serialization` has experimental `properties` support:
<https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/tree/master/formats#properties>

I'm BufferedReader / File / FileReader / Reader

As for loading files, there’s no multiplatform way afaik.

I think Korio may work for your use case
<https://korlibs.soywiz.com/korio/>

I looked into the whole korlibs but there's no documentation. Apparently, I need to read the source code to grok how to use it.

Agreed, documentation is lacking.
You can join Slack/Discord channels mentioned on the site, the community might be able to help.

Http server? Even in native?
Looks like the great library.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Okio is not for JavaScript

Unless there's an update that I didn't see

Also JS browser? How would you use a `FileReader` or alike in a browser for example? :thinking_face:

What do you want to achieve?

Okio-files dont have js support, yes, may be in future, you can ask there :)
It has buffers support on js

I wrote the entire library already, but putting it in a multiplatform project, it blew up (obviously :slightly_smiling_face: ). So now I'm scrambling to "multiplatform-irize" it

KMM is like the Devil: You accept the promise, but you have to pay a high price to achieve it! :slightly_smiling_face:

korlibs is for kotlin 1.3. I'm using 1.4.20. <@UBW3WFQTC> have you used this lib in 1.4+?

pretty sure korio is 1.4 even if not all korlibs are

yes, Korlibs use 1.4.20 for version 2.0 and above.

Also, any chance that it will be in jcenter? Our company has an artifactory server which I MUST use.

(I know I may be asking the wrong person. :slightly_smiling_face: )

I am not sure but it seems so <https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.soywiz.korlibs.korio/korio>
