Prerequisites

Kotlin side (library author)

• JDK 17+

• Gradle, via the included wrapper (./gradlew)

• .NET SDK 8.0+, only if you bind a NuGet package into Kotlin (nuget { dependencies { dependency(...) { bind { ... } } } }).

  Publishing Kotlin to NuGet needs no .NET SDK. packNuget writes the .nupkg itself with java.util.zip and never shells out to dotnet. Only nugetRestore and nugetExtractApi invoke dotnet (both require it via requireDotnet() in nuget-plugin/src/main/kotlin/io/github/xxfast/kotlin/native/nuget/NugetTooling.kt), and both only run when a dependency is declared. See Gradle tasks.

C# side (consumer)

• .NET SDK 8.0+

That's it. Bindings are pre-generated at Kotlin compile time via KSP, so the consumer needs no additional tooling.

Compatibility

KSP is pinned to its Kotlin version, so bumping Kotlin without bumping the plugin is not supported.

Supported native targets

The plugin maps Kotlin/Native targets to NuGet runtime identifiers (RIDs), used for the runtimes/{rid}/native/ package layout. The map lives as KONAN_TO_RID in nuget-plugin/src/main/kotlin/io/github/xxfast/kotlin/native/nuget/NugetPlugin.kt, keyed on KonanTarget.name; the table below uses the Gradle DSL target names you actually write inside kotlin { }:

A native target outside this table is skipped with a warning, and if no configured target is supported, the plugin skips the whole project for that build. See Getting started for target configuration and Gradle tasks for what runs where.
