Has there been any wind of a JetBrains mpp date library for Kotlin? There is something called klock on github, but dates are difficult to do right, so I'm not sure I trust it.

Dates are hard, yes. Do you know about TzData? They are updated quite often, sometimes with little time to react. That alone explains why there's no perfect solution in a programming language. The story went forward still, as duration is set to enter the stdlib in the not too distant future: https://github.com/Kotlin/KEEP/pull/191

There has been wind of one, yes. Currently I use klock, but it has enough issues that I'm jumping ship to kotlinx.time as soon as it's available.

I've gone over this before and I don't feel like rehashing the entire argument, but there does exist a separate mpp lib called kotlinx.time that was in the design phase last I checked. The comment from Roman is talking about how such a lib would have to be separate from the stdlib due to its size

Ah, ok

@elizarov Any chance you'd confirm?

Yes. We’ll work on date/time library. Don’t expect release soon, though.

I wonder how you'll approach TzData.

On JVM we’ll use platform.

Will there a way to pass your own TzData in case you need them to be the absolute latest?
