kotlin-result VS miniserve

Sealed classes in combination with a library like https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result will get you what you need. Essentially at that point you'll be doing error handling the way you would in Rust, where a 1-level deep sealed class containing data classes as children act as the root error type and each of its variants. If you have errors coming from two different domains you just create a wrapper error type for each domain.

This is a great result lib: https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result

Lastly I do not like kotlin's Result and we use the kotlin-result library which is more expressive and not tied to Throwable (similar to Arrow's Either).

In my own code, I started to use explicit error handling. I'm currently experimenting with Result (from https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result) and Raise (from https://arrow-kt.io/).

un-related to multiplatform i've found it extremely helpful to wrap things in a Result type. If something can throw an error, it get's a Result return type. It sounds like that would help your use case too. The built in Result may be useful too

This is a better impl.

Using a result type can help to differentiate quite nicely. https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result

dufs miniserve

GitHub - svenstaro/miniserve: 🌟 For when you really just want to serve some files over HTTP right now!

And yet C and C++ also have similar functionality. Even if the difference were measured in hundreds of milliseconds, I'd still want to trim down the set of supported formats in my projects and, guess what... the project I most have in mind is an image gallery version of miniserve where I want to statically link everything.

Second this. Both Dufs or Miniserve are good lightweight options.

On a server machine I have Miniserve (a simple service to serve files from a folder over a website) running at 192.168.0.24:50090 or server.local.obfuscated.duckdns.org:50090.

miniserve is an example of an app sort of like that (no SQL, but it'll do file downloads and uploads). I'm currently using it to work on something similar but for quickly throwing up image galleries.

actix-web was the big name in "runs on stable Rust" for a long time and it's what I use, as well as what's used by things like miniserve, paired with Maud.
