## What it is
kotlin-inject is a compile-time dependency injection library for Kotlin that generates component implementations via KSP annotations. It provides constructor injection, @Provides functions, and binding support without runtime reflection.

## Use cases
- dependency injection for kotlin projects
- compile-time DI without reflection
- android app dependency injection
- generate DI component code with KSP
- replace dagger with a kotlin-native DI library
- wire multi-module kotlin services

## When to choose
- you want fast, reflection-free dependency injection in Kotlin
- you prefer compile-time safety and generated code over runtime DI
- you're building Android or JVM apps with Kotlin and KSP

## When to avoid
- you need a Java-first DI framework with a large ecosystem
- your project is not on the JVM/Kotlin toolchain
- you need runtime dynamic injection or service-locator patterns

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, build-tool
- domain: developer-tools, programming-languages, backend, mobile-development
- platform: jvm
- tags: dependency-injection, compile-time-di, ksp, code-generation, kotlin, android
