This library allows treating any kotlinx.io Source or Sink as a bit stream!

It introduces BitSink and BitSource interfaces, which can be obtained simply by calling bitSink() or bitSource() on any Sink or Source, which allow reading and writing data in increments smaller than a byte.

It also provides various extensions and utilities for working with bits and bytes.

First, add the official Maven Central repository to your settings.gradle.kts:

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositories {
        maven("https://central.sonatype.com/repository/maven-snapshots")
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Then add a dependency on the library in your root buildscript:

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        commonMain {
            dependencies {
                implementation("dev.karmakrafts.karbide:karbide-core:<version>")
            }
        }
    }
}

Or, if you are only using Kotlin/JVM, add it to your top-level dependencies block instead.
