how do dependencies work in a MPP-world? consider a MPP with targets JVM and JS with a

commonMain

dependency on lets call it

A

. What does

A

have to provide in order to be usable as a dependency? Does

A

have ro provide a

.class

as well as a

.js

artifact? Does kotlin kompile `A`s kotlin code into the target's format?

Dependencies would need to be Kotlin MPP as well, if you want to have them referenced from the common part. The Kotlin standard library would be a natural example. If you have third party code that is not pure Kotlin, you can reference it only from the platform-dependent part and therefor most likely need to write abstractions for it.

OK thank you
