docs: archive outdated reports and organize references
Archived several outdated reports (`Ping-Service_Impl_01-2026.md`, `Frontend_Integration_Status.md`, etc.) and added archival notes and references to updated documents. Introduced a centralized reference structure for tech stack documentation, consolidating files under `01_Architecture/Reference/Tech_Stack`. Added new resources (`Gradle_Kotlin_DSL_Primer`, `Kotlin_2-3-0_ReleaseNotes`) for improved project organization and clarity.

The Kotlin 2.3.0 release is out! Here are the main highlights:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Language:** More stable and default features, unused return value checker, explicit backing fields, and changes to context-sensitive resolution.
|
||||
* **Kotlin/JVM:** Support for Java 25.
|
||||
* **Kotlin/Native:** Improved interop through Swift export, faster build time for release tasks, C and Objective-C library import in Beta.
|
||||
* **Kotlin/Wasm:** Fully qualified names and new exception handling proposal enabled by default, as well as new compact storage for Latin-1 characters.
|
||||
* **Kotlin/JS:** New experimental suspend function export, `LongArray` representation, unified companion object access, and more.
|
||||
* **Gradle:** Compatibility with Gradle 9.0 and a new API for registering generated sources.
|
||||
* **Compose compiler:** Stack traces for minified Android applications.
|
||||
* **Standard library:** Stable time tracking functionality and improved UUID generation and parsing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Language
|
||||
|
||||
Kotlin 2.3.0 focuses on feature stabilization, introduces a new mechanism for detecting unused return values, and improves context-sensitive resolution.
|
||||
|
||||
### Stable features
|
||||
|
||||
The following features have now graduated to Stable:
|
||||
* Support for nested type aliases
|
||||
* Data-flow-based exhaustiveness checks for `when` expressions
|
||||
|
||||
### Features enabled by default
|
||||
* Support for `return` statements in expression bodies with explicit return types is now enabled by default.
|
||||
|
||||
### Experimental: Unused return value checker
|
||||
Kotlin 2.3.0 introduces the unused return value checker to help prevent ignored results.
|
||||
|
||||
### Experimental: Explicit backing fields
|
||||
A new syntax for explicitly declaring the underlying field that holds a property's value, simplifying the common backing properties pattern.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kotlin/JVM: Support for Java 25
|
||||
Starting with Kotlin 2.3.0, the compiler can generate classes containing Java 25 bytecode.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kotlin/Native
|
||||
* **Improved Swift Export:** Direct mapping for native enum classes and variadic function parameters.
|
||||
* **C and Objective-C Library Import is in Beta:** Better diagnostics for binary compatibility issues.
|
||||
* **Faster Build Time:** Up to 40% faster release builds, especially for iOS targets.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kotlin/Wasm
|
||||
* **Fully Qualified Names Enabled by Default:** `KClass.qualifiedName` is now available at runtime without extra configuration.
|
||||
* **Compact Storage for Latin-1 Characters:** Reduces metadata and binary size.
|
||||
* **New Exception Handling for `wasmWasi`:** Enabled by default for better compatibility with modern WebAssembly runtimes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kotlin/JS
|
||||
* **Experimental Suspend Function Export:** Export suspend functions directly to JavaScript using `@JsExport`.
|
||||
* **`BigInt64Array` for `LongArray`:** Simplifies interop with JavaScript APIs that use typed arrays.
|
||||
* **Unified Companion Object Access:** Consistent access to companion objects in interfaces across all JS module systems.
|
||||
|
||||
## Gradle
|
||||
* Fully compatible with Gradle 7.6.3 through 9.0.0.
|
||||
* New experimental API for registering generated sources.
|
||||
|
||||
## Standard library
|
||||
* **Stable Time Tracking:** `kotlin.time.Clock` and `kotlin.time.Instant` are now stable.
|
||||
* **Improved UUID Generation:** New functions like `Uuid.parseOrNull()`, `Uuid.generateV4()`, and `Uuid.generateV7()`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Compose compiler
|
||||
* **Stack Traces for Minified Android Apps:** The compiler now outputs ProGuard mappings for Compose stack traces when applications are minified by R8.
