Hey, question about KN gradle plugins: what’s the difference between konan plugin and those new experimental ones? Is Konan used for mutliplatform or just single platform?

[dany]

Konan can be used for multiplatform too; I think experimentals is just migrating and refactoring it to a DSL closer to the other kotlin ones

[Krizzu]

Thanks @dany. Just read that in their docs

[ankushg]

is there a link to the docs about the new experimental ones? I must have missed it and my Google skills are failing me

It’s mentioned just at the top

Ah thanks! I was hoping there might have been docs at the same detail as that page except for the new plugin, but I'll just wait a bit before diving into it 🙂

If your'e developing a Kotlin multi-platform project then the kotlin-native-platform plugin is used. On the other hand if your'e developing a Kotlin Native project then it would make sense to use the old konan plugin (more stable and Gradle Kotlin DSL friendly).
