Is there a recommended way to create androidMain and androidTest modules?

there's a lot more to it than that. you also need to apply the android gradle plugin, add your android block, associate it with the kotlin source sets, and add an AndroidManifest.xml

It works as expected, i'm able to generate aar

but IDE doesn't highlight any errors for missing definitions

```android {
    compileSdkVersion 29
    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 29
        versionCode 1
        versionName '1.0'
        testInstrumentationRunner 'android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner'
    }
    buildTypes {
        debug {
        }
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
        }
    }
    sourceSets {
        main {
            manifest.srcFile 'src/androidMain/AndroidManifest.xml'// See notes #4
            java.srcDirs = ['src/androidMain/kotlin']
            res.srcDirs = ['src/androidMain/resources']
        }
        androidTest {
            java.srcDirs = ['src/androidTest/kotlin']
            res.srcDirs = ['src/androidTest/resources']
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    }
}```

i was looking for the official way to create androidMain and androidTest

right now if i create, it is just a directory

if so, perhaps restart IDEA. it can get confused when you "migrate" a target like this

I suspect that IDE doesn't highlight errors because its not seen as a module

that has actually fixed issues for me in the past when doing this

no luck, that didn't help, it doesn't mark it as a module

Does your setup show it as a module? Are you using Android Studio or IntelliJ?

same as in androidMain shows as a directory?

and it doesn't show as a module on the module settings dialog

Okay, do you remember how you created those?
