Is programming in Kotlin native the same as for JVM? Or do I have to go through complicated stuff like "Garbage collection" and things like that which I won't understand?

Kotlin Native has garbage collection.

Kotlin/Native is not the same as JVM. Just because you use C bindings and dependencies instead of Java and JVM.
But you can use Kotlin and stdlib mostly the same way as for other platforms

Practically speaking, it's similar to Kotlin/JVM or Kotlin/JS, with the difference of platform-specific APIs availability

Even if you use the JVM you don't have to understand garbage collection...
