Use pre-alpha (snapshot) builds of compose-jb?

[twyatt]

Krayon is currently stuck on an older Kotlin version (1.6.10 at the time of this writing) because of compose-jb.

This may become troublesome for consumers, as libraries such as kotlinx.datetime have specific Kotlin version compatibility. For example, starting with Kotlin 1.7.0, kotlinx.datetime 0.3.3+ is required. If there are breaking API changes in upcoming kotlinx.datetime releases, then Krayon could cause runtime issues for people if they are using a newer (incompatible) kotlinx.datetime to that which Krayon is compiled against.

In order to use Kotlin 1.7.0, Krayon would need to switch to using pre-alpha (snapshot) builds of compose-jb, such as mentioned in JetBrains/compose-multiplatform#2108 (comment).

I'm fine building on a pre-alpha, the old libraries have become painful. We'll just have to be careful not releasing (or only releasing a -prerelease build) until things progress.
