by common I mean specifically

kotlin-platform-common

Regular jars. They contain Kotlin metadata inside

what if that jar depends on classes from the jvm and your common module is targeting js, for example? does it have any compile time checks against that?

Common module targets no platform @felipecsl

Common code cannot depend of platform-specific artifacts. Only on other common modules.

i guess my question was not very clear. maybe I should just try it out myself and see what happens 🙂 thanks though
