# multiplatform

The main pain point of Kotlin multiplatform now for me is build libraries, like a data structure library that doesn't depend on any platform specific implementation. The current problem is publish the library because you need to compile for all platforms native platforms.
I was checking the Jetbrains Kotlinx library and they use a gradle plugin called infra that does this work, but I think is an internal plugin, anyone has an idea if this infra plugin will be shared to the community or any other current alternative to do it?

If I've read the 1.4 blog post correctly, you'll soon be able to publish platform independent libraries. Compile to IR and let consumer do the rest.

(Also, last time I checked, infra was deprecated. Not sure)

For a current workaround, you can use GitHub actions to build for each platform. And it also depends on where you are publishing too.
