SKIE (Swift Kotlin Interface Enhancer) is a Kotlin compiler plugin that improves the Swift API generated from Kotlin Multiplatform code. It bridges Kotlin features like Flows, suspend functions, sealed hierarchies, and default arguments that are lost when Swift calls Kotlin through Objective-C.

Use cases

• make Kotlin Multiplatform APIs feel native in Swift
• call Kotlin suspend functions from Swift async code
• consume Kotlin Flows as Swift AsyncSequences
• exhaustively switch on Kotlin sealed classes from Swift
• remove Objective-C interop boilerplate in iOS KMP apps
• expose Kotlin enums as real Swift enums

When to choose

• you're building a Kotlin Multiplatform app or framework consumed by iOS/Swift
• you want Swift-idiomatic APIs without changing your Kotlin code
• you need Flow and coroutine interop with proper cancellation in Swift

When to avoid

• your project doesn't target iOS or Swift consumers
• you use a platform without Kotlin/Native framework output
• you need direct Swift-to-Kotlin interop beyond what compiler plugins can provide
