Are there any good tutorials showing the use of Reactor streams using Kotlin?
I don't know, why I'm downvoted here, but it is very relevant if the library provide the operators you need or if you have to implement them yourself. If Kotlin Flow is enough, then use it. From experience you don't have to go to far to miss operators from Reactor or RxJava. Maybe some day additional libraries like https://github.com/akarnokd/kotlin-flow-extensions will fill the gap, but for the time being Reactor or RxJava offer a lot more for (not trivial) real world use cases.

Kotlin Team AMA #3: Ask Us Anything
Why do you want to keep Flow such a small library? It could be an attractive alternative to RxJava or Reactor, but it misses many useful operators today. On the other hand it brings a lot more operatores than would be required as a foundation for other frameworks (likeKotlin Flow Extensions). From my point of view Flow stays in the middleground with no good reason.

Understanding file associations in JVM apps
So, to add file associations, we need to be able to pass both the .properties file and the --file-associations option. At the time of writing this article, the org.jetbrains.compose plugin doesn't provide such a mechanism. There is an open issue on GitHub that describes a possible workaround, which, unfortunately seems to not work on macOS.

Timeline with Scrollbar in LazyColumn Compose
Compose for desktop has a scrollbar component available. You probably can't use that directly on Android, but you could probably steal most of its code.
- How good is Compose Multiplatform in production especially in creating Desktop apps?

Kotlin for a desktop App
My company uses https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform to make a desktop app in Kotlin. It's amazing and fantastic. It's basically as mature as using Kotlin in an Android app.

JetBrains Compose is now Compose Multiplatform
As for missing controls, a common one is a grid. They have built in grids, but again they are built for Android and don't make any sense in a desktop app. There is no simple way to create an Excel-like Data Grid like you might see in Windows Forms, although it can be done. https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/issues/344.
