while doing this I have noticed that a project called kotlinx.typedarrays or so using Js Typed Arrays+ArrayBuffer in JS, NIO Buffers in Java and pointers in Konan would be nice. Since I’m going to implement it (JS and JVM), if you like the idea I can extract it to a separate project/repo and then move/donate to Kotlin org so it can evolve there

What is kotlinx.typedarrays? I cannot find it. i know that recent versions of Kotlin/JS map typed Kotlin array (like IntArray) to the typed arrays in JS, though

@elizarov It's not an existing project, it's a project that would be nice

It would provide typedarrays as a common project, so you can use that API in common places. In JVM would use nio Buffers and in Konan pointers or arrays

I mean what API would it have other than arrays?

But the concept of having a ArrayBuffer/Buffer and then have several views to it is nice to have

oh. I see. Then probably it's better to be called like

kotlinx.arraybuffers
