TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE
The Kotlin 2.0.20 release is out! This version includes performance improvements and bug fixes for Kotlin 2.0.0, where we announced the Kotlin K2 compiler as Stable. Here are some additional highlights from this release:
The data class copy function will have the same visibility as the constructor
Static accessors for source sets from the default target hierarchy are now available in multiplatform projects
Concurrent marking for Kotlin/Native has been made possible in the garbage collector
The @ExperimentalWasmDsl annotation in Kotlin/Wasm has a new location

A new option allows sharing JVM artifacts between Gradle projects as class files

How to install Kotlin 2.0.20
Starting from IntelliJ IDEA 2023.3 and Android Studio Iguana (2023.2.1) Canary 15, the Kotlin plugin is distributed as a bundled plugin included in your IDE. This means that you can’t install the plugin from JetBrains Marketplace anymore.
To update to the new Kotlin version, change the Kotlin version to 2.0.20 in your build scripts.
