Use when persisting key-value preferences or small typed settings on Android or KMP with Jetpack DataStore — Preferences vs Typed (Proto/JSON) vs Room selection, the IOException and corruption-recovery error traps, serializers with corruption handlers, and the KMP factory with per-platform file paths. Triggers on DataStore, Preferences, PreferenceDataStoreFactory, DataStoreFactory, preferencesDataStore, Serializer, SharedPreferences-to-DataStore migration, or persistent settings work.
