A set of Kotlin extension functions and properties that make Android app development more concise and idiomatic. The project was merged into AndroidX (core-ktx and related KTX libraries), and this repository is no longer used for development or issue tracking.

Use cases

  • write more concise Android code with Kotlin extensions
  • simplify Android APIs like SharedPreferences, bundles, and resources
  • reduce boilerplate in Android app development
  • use idiomatic Kotlin wrappers for androidx APIs
  • migrate Android KTX usage into AndroidX core-ktx

When to choose

  • you want idiomatic Kotlin extensions for Android APIs
  • you are already using AndroidX and want the maintained core-ktx libraries

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - use the AndroidX KTX libraries instead
  • you need bug fixes or new features, since this repo is abandoned and development moved to AOSP/AndroidX
