You have to apply the android plugin in the plugins block for this to work. Doing apply(plugin = "com.android.library") won't ......

What he said.

it then says it cant find "com.android.library"

[Dominaezzz]

You'll have to do some pluginManagement in your settings.gradle.kts file. Lemme find you a link.

Plugin [id: 'com.android.library'] was not found in any of the following sources:
