We’re happy to announce the release of Kotlin 1.3.50 today. In addition to the quality and tooling improvements, the main focus for this version has been on:

  • Designing a new Duration and Time Measurement API (available for preview).
  • Working on an improved Java-to-Kotlin converter.
  • Experimental generation of external declarations for npm dependencies in Gradle Kotlin/JS projects (using Dukat).
  • A separate plugin for debugging Kotlin/Native code in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.
  • Java compilation support in multiplatform projects.

You can find the complete list of changes in the change log. As always, we’d like to thank our external contributors. Now let’s dive into the details!
