It looks like we always had Structured Concurrency, yet only a year passed. Good time to see how it was and where it might go to https://medium.com/@elizarov/structured-concurrency-anniversary-f2cc748b2401

I've wrote a short article about handling inner React state from outside with coroutines: https://medium.com/@altavir/taming-react-with-kotlin-js-and-coroutines-ef0d3f72b3ea. There is some discussion about whether it is better than redux or not and I am not convinced yet (let's discuss it in #javascript).

https://reduxkotlin.org (a multiplatform redux implementation) website is up, and droidcon talk I did on the subject https://www.droidcon.com/media-detail?video=362742403 . A few samples are available in the github org and plan to have more. Redux on multiplatform looks promising. #redux for conversation/collaboration

Hi all, maybe someone is eager to help to build a versioned data store (currently for XML and JSON in a binary format, whereas the storage engine has been written from scratch). SirixDB shares unchanged database pages between snapshots and even versions data pages... https://sirix.io   the core has been written in Java but the REST-API is built with Vert.x and Kotlin (Coroutines) and I'd love to add Kotlin to other modules as it's so much more fun to write and read Kotlin code. I'd also love to provide a Kotlin DSL...

Advanced Android with Kotlin : Custom Views , Maps and more.. https://classroom.udacity.com/courses/ud940

Advanced work with Kotlin sequences. Developed to make solving many common problems easier, and to improve performance in cases when iterating the sequence and/or transforming its items is slow. Advanced features to split and transform sequences, to make solving complex problems easier. Allows to iterate a sequence once and simultaneously compute multiple results, improving performance. Allows to use one computation, such as filtering or mapping, in multiple results, making code shorter and easier to understand, and improving performance. Uses stateful transformations, such as filters and mappings, which allows for easy solutions to many common problems. Easy to use, reuse, and extend. Pure Kotlin.

A conference proceedings paper is published for my talk in Dubna earlier this year: https://aip.scitation.org/doi/abs/10.1063/1.5130103 Nothing new there, but just in case someone needs a published peer-reviewed paper reference.

Hi everyone, Here is my first attempt at creating a DSL in Kotlin. Quick RecyclerView Adapter Dsl. Its for Android https://github.com/dragneelfps/quickrecyclerviewadapter Just wanted to share 🙂 Usage:

private val rvAdapter by lazy {
 adapter(R.layout.item_layout, listOf("One", "Two")) {
     bindings {
         bind<TextView>(R.id.count_text) { datum, countTextView ->
             countTextView.text = datum
         }
     }
 }
}
