What is the latest status for kotlin.serialization support for KN?🤔 https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/86 This issue hasn’t got any official reply. Will it even happen?

@gildor Thanks, just saw that. So POC means WIP?

POC stands for Proof of concept

It means that theoretically it works and that’s all. But honestly I really don’t like solution with a separate dsl, imo would be better to wait for compiler plugins for K/N

@gildor But compiler plugins are a ways out right? I asked a few months ago at kotlinconf, and I was told that it hasn't even been designed yet.

Kotlin Compilers already exist, but it’s completely internal API not intended to use by third party developers. We already have those compiler plugins: all-open, default constructor, serialization

problem that there are no compiler plugins for K/N, I suppose because K/N backend has very different structure (based on internal representation)

right, they said for the compiler plugins, they'd need to bring all the compilers under the same backend.

About public compiler plugins API. I believe that Kotlin Team will start work on them only when Kotlin compiler refactoring will be finished for the all backends

yes, exactly

serialization is being worked on by library team for all platforms, including Native

But would be nice to have the same serialization API on K/N as on JS and JVM
