  • How can I learn Kotlin web development?
    3 projects | /r/Kotlin | 26 Mar 2023
    I'm actively working on https://github.com/varabyte/kobweb, which builds on top of Compose for Web and adds some extra support to make it a little easier for Android developers to get into. (You will ultimately need to learn html / css but I believe Kobweb makes that a little easier to start getting used to it).
  • How relevant is it to use Kotlin for frontend development?
    2 projects | /r/Kotlin | 20 Feb 2023
    https://github.com/varabyte/kobweb is Compose for Web using DOM rendering instead of Canvas with a Jamstack like approach. Worth to try and if it later upgrade from Kotlin/JS to Kotlin/Wasm, it could really become something big …
  • Tech-stack for web application using Kotlin?

    I'm working on https://github.com/varabyte/kobweb which is not mature, but you might want to check it out anyway?
  • The Potential of Kotlin/WASM
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 Feb 2023
    This is indeed a very important point, and I care deeply about that.

    For Compose for Web, there has been I think a lot of debate to decide if the Web rendering should be Canvas or DOM based. At least for now, it seems the official support is focusing on Canvas rendering for pixel-perfect rendering, and it already works with Koltin/Wasm, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34779746. This choice is probably driven by Kotlin current mobile app main use case.

    But via community-driven project like https://github.com/varabyte/kobweb or https://github.com/mpetuska/kmdc, Compose for Web can also be a good Web citizen and perform DOM based rendering.

    I'm working on an opinionated framework on top of their framework called Kobweb, but depending on your goals it may be sightly too early to use it.
  • Why can't I run my project?
