As part of the Room KMP release, a less known library was significantly updated to support Room KMP, androidx.sqlite. The library was transformed to be beyond a simple backwards compatible Jetpack library for the Android platform. Via its new 'driver' APIs, it offers the building blocks to create low-level integrations that enables Room to communicate with the desired SQL engine. This lighting talk will go through the APIs, what it enables; such as Bundled SQLite, and how you could use it in your Android applications to provide extra functionality that the platform or Room does not offer out of the box.
