PROFILE
Clarke Brunsdon
During January 2026, Clarke enhanced the square/wire repository by refining cross-platform API hygiene and Kotlin Multiplatform interoperability. Focusing on backend and Android development, Clarke reduced JVM static API exposure and aligned IO interop with Okio, replacing Java IOExceptions to improve consistency. The work included refactoring JvmField usage and annotation patterns to strengthen Kotlin and Java interoperability across Android and non-Android targets. Clarke updated documentation and stabilized multiplatform samples, ensuring changes were well-documented and accessible. Using Kotlin and Gradle, these efforts reduced maintenance overhead, improved binary and API stability, and enabled safer evolution of the codebase for future development.

21 Commits • 10 Features
Jan 1, 2026January 2026 highlights a set of cross-cutting interop and API hygiene improvements for wire across Kotlin Multiplatform. Key outcomes include reducing JVM surface exposure, aligning IO interop with Okio, and tightening Kotlin/Java interop guards for Android and non-Android targets. Notable work includes a targeted cleanup of static API exposure, Okio-based IO type interop, and a comprehensive JvmField guard refactor. Documentation and samples were updated to reflect changes, with multi-platform samples stabilized for broader usage. These changes reduce maintenance burden, improve binary/API stability, and enable safer evolution across Kotlin/Multiplatform and Android targets.
