I have a function returning Array<String> in Kotlin Multiplatform. Is this specific type consumable from Swift? If so, what is the equivalent type in Swift?

EDIT: Looks like it's KotlinArray in Swift.
EDIT2: Well, looks like KotlinArray is a generated type from my framework itself. I wonder if I shouldn't use List<String> instead of Array<String>? Would it then translate into the desired type in Swift (which would be [String] I guess)?

Yes, Kotlin’s List should be translated to Swift’s Array . To learn more on mappings, see (https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/blob/master/OBJC_INTEROP.md#mappings)

Yeah, saw that also on the kotlinlang.org site. But they don't mention Kotlin's Array though. I used arrays at a lot of places in my functions (either parameters or return type). Most notably UBbyteArray. I hope I don't have to change to List<UByte>... 🤨😬
