Hello
I'm working on a pure kotlin-based web project. Everything is fine localy and with my CI pipeline also. The issue comes when i want to push the project on Cloud Foundry: The official java buildpack does not work for the project.
Is there a dedicated buildpack for kotlin projects or some java buildpack version which works with kotlin project ?

The official Java buildpack works with Spring Boot + Kotlin. How do you specify the main class in your project?

@sdeleuze i do not use Spring boot but Ktor (a kotlin web framework) and my pom.xml was not well configured ( i did not specified the main class as with spring boot i didn't do so and the dependencies was not included in the builded jar). I solved the issue by specifying the main class (the full qualified name) and asked maven to include the dependencies when building the jar.
