Our project was structured in a single repo containing many different Swift Package Manager (SPM) library targets, along with test code and code only used as part of development. This presents a few problems however, one being that when a user adds the SPM package as a dependency, it will pull down all of the code and files in the repo, even though most of them aren't needed. ## Kdoc for Android libraries using Dokka DevFeed: [Kdoc for Android libraries using Dokka]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: info@jeroenmols.com (Jeroen Mols) Published: 2020-02-19T00:00:00Z Content type: tutorial Language: en Sources: [Jeroen Mols]() Topics: [Documentation](), [generate documentation](), [Kotlin](), [Library](), [modules](), [Gradle](), [Submodules](), [GitHub Pages]() Tags: [blogs](), [documentation](), [dokka](), [generate-documentation](), [github-pages](), [gradle](), [kdoc](), [kotlin](), [library](), [module](), [submodules]() ### AI overview This tutorial explains how to generate KDoc for Kotlin libraries with the Dokka Gradle plugin.
