Okio is a low-level I/O library created by Square for Java and Kotlin that simplifies and optimizes data access. It provides a modern alternative to Java’s InputStream and OutputStream, enabling efficient, buffered, and chainable data handling. Okio is used in many high-performance networking and serialization libraries, including OkHttp.

Features

  • Efficient buffered reading and writing
  • Immutable and mutable ByteString handling
  • Support for file, memory, and socket I/O
  • Built-in timeout handling for streams
  • Integration with OkHttp and Kotlin coroutines
  • Platform-independent API for Java and Kotlin
