This module creates the standard library for Kotlin.

We use code generation to generate some repetitive utility extension functions, e.g. for collection-like types: arrays, strings, Collection<T>, Sequence<T>, Map<K, V> etc. Those are defined in templates written in a special Kotlin-based DSL.

Generated sources are placed into the generated folder and their names are prefixed with an underscore, for example, generated/_Collections.kt

To run the code generator, use the following task:

./gradlew :tools:kotlin-stdlib-gen:run

If you want to author samples for the standard library, please head to the samples readme.
