dart_frog VS ktor

DartFrog

What sets you apart from Dart Frog https://dartfrog.vgv.dev/ ?

Dart is still mostly for Flutter, but we're seeing it move into the server side as well with projects like Serverpod and Dart Frog.

This project is incredible https://dartfrog.vgv.dev

What do you think of dart_frog? People at Google seem to use it for sample projects based on some of the Flutter YouTube channel videos.

We’re working on multipart form data support (https://github.com/VeryGoodOpenSource/dart_frog/issues/296) but in the meantime you can use https://pub.dev/packages/shelf_multipart.

There's also Dart Frog if you want to keep everything in Dart, but i do not have experience with it so can't recommend either way.

In this blog, I will talk about the benchmarks of Flask (Python), Express (JavaScript), Shelf (Dart), dart_frog (Dart) and Conduit (Dart), and my opinions on Dart on the server side.

In paralel Jetbrains has created a lot of KMP frameworks that are awesome. One of them is Ktor that helps "create asynchronous client and server applications."

Ktor, a powerful web framework built with Kotlin, offers a lightweight and flexible solution for building web applications. In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating a Ktor project manually using Gradle and SDKMAN!. By following the steps below, you'll have a basic Ktor project up and running in no time.

take a look at http4k and ktor for Kotlin specific frameworks Spring has first class support for Kotlin e.g. the following will give you reactive HTTP endpoints when using spring-webflux (this is what is use at work):

Ktor (Microservices framework by JetBrains)

For Android you should use a more mobile friendly framework like Retrofit or if you use Kotlin you can use the multi-platform Ktor library with it's client module

And last but not least, Ktor Client as our HTTP client. https://ktor.io/ It's a pretty amazing http client library and integrates well with Kotlinx serialization and Coroutines.

Kotlin is going to be great with almost every single JVM server. Spring works well with Kotlin, and is directly supported, but spring is also massive, very bloated. I recommend looking at https://github.com/ktorio/ktor which continues to serve all of my needs very well, integrates fantastically with Kotlin coroutines, and has very fast startup time and very good performance.

For the sake of the test, we use Ktor - the easiest way to do so is to use initializer.

I know you are looking for Spring Boot and/or Quarkus, but have you tried ktor. Just curios if you had a particular reason for choosing the other 2. Disclaimer: I haven't used ktor.
