Released first version of Cabret - #Kotlin Multiplatform library / Kotlin Compiler Plugin for method call logging https://github.com/Foso/Cabret-Log

Doodle 0.3.4 released. Some highlights since version 0.3.2: • App JS now works when in header as well as body • Improved GridPanel API with remove/clear and more dynamic item spacing • Added simple drag-recognizer DSL • Reduced use of data classes • Fixed pointer location bug in nested apps • Label are easier to use since they now rely on their Behavior (instead of a TextMetrics) to determine their text size. • Scrolling is now disabled if mouse-down is consumed. If so, it is then re-enabled on mouse-up. This makes it easier for things like buttons and sliders to work on touch devices. • Now simulating pointer exit on touch up Slack Conversation

I'm happy to announce a new version of PatternFly Fritz2. PatternFly Fritz2 v0.2.0 adds four new components and brings many enhancements to existing components. There are now 26 components available. See the release notes for all details. For those who don't know PatternFly Fritz2, PatternFly Fritz2 is a 💯 Kotlin implementation of PatternFly based on fritz2 targeting Kotlin/JS. To get a quick overview what this is all about head over to the PatternFly Fritz2 showcase. It demonstrates the usage of all supported components and also includes more complex demos of data driven components such as card view, data list and data tables. To get all details about how to use PatternFly Fritz2 take a look at the getting started section and the API documentation. PatternFly Fritz2 is still under development.

🌐 If you want to conveniently host your Kotlin/Ktor applications, but also own the deployment environment (instead of relying on cloud providers), I just published a small walkthrough of how to get Kotlin + Ktor apps running on your own self-hosted Dokku instance 🐳 (vaguely related to my previous post about Heroku). Just in time for your next weekend projects! Find it here: https://dev.to/kotlin/deploying-server-side-kotlin-ktor-applications-on-dokku-1iee Feedback and ideas for future posts totally welcome 😄

Doodle 0.4.0 released Highlights include: • Upgrade to Kotlin 1.4.21! IR support will come in a future release as dependencies support it. • Improved Font support with the ability to load fonts from file urls and oblique font styles • New property delegates (renderProperty, styleProperty) that automate trigger re-render and style notifications

class MyView: View {
    var name by renderProperty("") // will cause the View to re-render when it changes
    var age  by styleProperty (56) // will cause trigger styleChanged event when changed
}

• Pointer, PointerMotion, and Key listener DSLs for more compact consumption of a single event type

view.poinerChanged        += pressed  { event -> }
view.keyChanged           += released { event -> }
view.pointerMotionChanged += dragged  { event -> }

• DSLs to simplify usage of ListEditor, Layouts that only position, and CommonButtonBehavior that just render • TextField now supports font/color for placeholder • Added support for text decorations to StyledText See the full release notes for more details. Slack Conversation

I have just written a Kotlin Email API! It is simple, modern and coroutine based - supporting both clientside and serverside projects. You can create and send emails, but also receive and process emails using a custom RFC-compliant SMTP server. It also provides kotlinx.html support, allowing you to send HTML emails without any templating language. I am already using the API myself and it works well - I plan to develop it further in the future. Links: • GitHub Repository • Documentation

I made a video about Vim usage in Android Studio, I really love Vim and I would love other Android/Kotlin programmers (mainly IntelliJ users) to know that it can improve their workflow too I hope you see the fun and usefulness in it
