I am pretty new to Kotlin as a whole and was trying to use this package in a spark app, it seems i need to also have this android dependency?
I saw there was another issue that was closed that said it removed all android deps.

Facing the same issue with version 0.5

same here. so this is Android specific lib? No java apps support?

@deviant-studio I did not do any research, but I think that the android dep is a mistake and it is possible to remove it easily. Even if it is indeed required somewhere in this lib, it can't be many places and is still easily discardable.
