Does this skill support both Android and iOS engines?

Yes, it includes specific configurations for OkHttp on Android and the Darwin engine for iOS, ensuring optimal platform performance within a shared KMP module.

How does it handle JSON serialization?

It utilizes the standard Kotlinx Serialization library, providing patterns for DTO definitions, serializable data classes, and mapping logic to domain models.

Can I use this for authenticated APIs?

Absolutely. The skill includes a dedicated section on implementing the Ktor Auth plugin, covering Bearer token storage and automatic refresh flows.

How do I test my network layer with this skill?

The skill provides a detailed guide on using Ktor's MockEngine to simulate API responses, allowing you to run unit tests on your common code without making real network calls.
