or does it rely souly on Cinterop for that

[Dominaezzz]

Kotlin doesn't and won't provide any file api. So right now we have to use cinterop which KN has done for us by exposing platform api like platform.posix.* and platform.windows.*.

[Dominaezzz]

There's an upcoming kotlinx.files to help with multiplatform File IO.

[Smallville7123]

is it compatible with JVM

[Dominaezzz]

If you talking about platform.posix.*, then no, it won't compile on Kotlin/JVM. You'll have to provide your own expect/actual.
