Kermit is a Kotlin Multiplatform logging library that lets shared Kotlin code write log statements to composable log outputs. It ships platform-specific LogWriters (Logcat, OSLog, console) plus integrations for Crashlytics, Bugsnag, and Koin.

Use cases

  • log from shared Kotlin Multiplatform code
  • write logs to Logcat on Android and OSLog on iOS
  • integrate logging with Crashlytics or Bugsnag
  • disable or strip log statements in production builds
  • customize log writers and severity levels

When to choose

  • you're building a Kotlin Multiplatform app and need centralized logging across platforms
  • you want platform-native log outputs with a single shared API
  • you need crash reporting integration from shared code

When to avoid

  • you're not using Kotlin or Kotlin Multiplatform
  • you need a logging solution for a single-platform JVM backend where SLF4J/Logback ecosystems fit better
