July 2025 highlights for google/kotlin: Delivered major Kotlin Gradle Plugin dependency management improvements and strengthened Kotlin Multiplatform diagnostics, delivering stronger build correctness, faster feedback, and better cross-project compatibility. Implemented top-level dependencies block, standardized test dependencies API, and enabled platform dependencies in the Kotlin Multiplatform Gradle plugin, with internal refactors to rely on source-set attributes and API modularization. Enhanced diagnostics and dependency checks for Kotlin Multiplatform and AGP interactions, including IDE-visible diagnostics, non-blocking strong warnings, and partial KMP dependency resolution diagnostics, with updated integration tests. Strengthened resilience to Gradle/AGP evolution, improved handling of KGP-Compose interactions, and cross-project configuration fault repros, contributing to more reliable releases and smoother onboarding for contributors. Overall, these efforts improve build determinism, developer experience, and ecosystem compatibility.
