Yeah, the issue with Ktor is that it is quite focus on the server-side and becomes quite complex for simple clients. We will see.
I’m not involved with OkHttp but looks like support for Kotlin Multiplatform was intentionally dropped in 5.0.0-alpha13.
> We planned to support multiplatform in OkHttp 5.0, but after building it, we weren’t happy with the implementation trade-offs. We can’t use our HTTP client engine on Kotlin/JS, and we weren’t prepared to build a TLS API for Kotlin/Native.

However, there is an open issue for at least shipping some KMP components.
