Spring with java vs Spring with kotlin

• initializr

  258 3,344 8.9 Java

  A quickstart generator for Spring projects

  

Used Spring (and Hibernate) with Kotlin for years and it works like a charme. If you don't create a new project on start.spring.io , I'd suggest to add the all-open respective the jpa kotlin plug-in to your Gradle konfiguration. These plug-ins will make your life easier, because otherwise you might need to find some workarounds for final class (the default) in Kotlin. But if you create a project with start.spring.io everything works out of the box.

To be fair there were quite some unexpected surprises in the past with Spring and Kotlin (e.g. the Cachable annotation did not work with suspend functions, not all Spring security annotations were supported with coroutines), but most of them were ironed out already.
