How do you send a message to Kafka using the Avro format? I've seen this lib but apparently it doesn't work with Kotlin.

As we do not use maven like the schema-registry-confluent-avro-serializer sample, we cannot use the official avro-maven-plugin. We will use davidmc24/gradle-avro-plugin instead.
