I've been noticing that some users have

[MOD]

in their name that weren't in the original list of mods. Is there an updated list of mods somewhere, and if these users aren't mods is there any issue with them having that in their name?

Am I allowed to show this Slack channel on my Twitch live stream?

Could I get

#kmdc

channel created? There seems to be a community forming around it already, so it would help to prevent spamming #compose-web too much.

Here's an idea - it would be cool to make use of slack-connect feature to link kotlin slack with gradle slack as those two often intersect anyways.

Hi, I have a private ktlint-dev channel for the maintainers of ktlint. We’re adding a new maintainer so we wanted to archive the old one and create a new private ktlint-dev channel (basically add a new member without preserving the channel history.) Would you be able to handle that for us?

is this going to happen? it seems like a good idea.

What is the intended purpose of the #compose-ui channel compared to the other compose ones? It looks like it was created by someone not at Google or Jetbrains, and has no channel topic, but was mentioned “officially” here.

Perhaps we can make a #fleet server upon its release for discussing Kotlin development with Fleet?

hey folks! can someone please assist us with creating a new channel dedicated to the new Google’s library Glance - https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2021/12/announcing-jetpack-glance-alpha-for-app.html. About the name for the channel maybe just #glance or #compose-glance if you think the first one is too generic.

Now that compose grew up to be such a multi-headed hydra, I propose renaming #compose channel to #compose-android to match #compose-wear, #compose-web and #compose-desktop. Then it would be great to have a new #compose (or maybe #compose-meta) channel created to be focussed on general compose questions (state management, code sharing between platforms, integrating with external stuff, etc...).

Is this Slack closed? the "get an invite" link is not working for me

The black font emojis are extremely hard to read and distinguish with dark theme. I'd like to suggest improving them, for example by a white border, so that they are also decipherable on dark theme.

I've 2 accounts for one email. This one on phone and the second (in thread) on my laptop.

Can I get a

#ballast

channel created, for the library I just released this morning? I’m seeing a good bit of interest in the project, and had a issue opened requesting a channel, and this would be the best way for me to provide support for it

#context-receivers channel?

Would it be possible to create a new channel for Decompose library - e.g. #decompose? Currently I'm using #mvikotlin for both libs, but it's quite difficult to discover and associate with Decompose - https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CJLTWPH7S/p1652995500107159

Could I get #komapper channel created? Komapper is an ORM library for server-side Kotlin. It has gone 1.0 GA. https://github.com/komapper/komapper

How does this tweet appeared on #android channel? It’s spam, but I’m not quite sure why it was posted on the channel https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0B8M7BUY/p1656353359808939

Where should I ask performance related questions? And where should general help writing a function go?

I just learned how to do syntax highlighting in Slack. https://tosbourn.com/slack-syntax-highlighting/#:~:text=Start%20typing%20%2Fsnippet,Press%20%E2%80%9Ccreate%20snippet%E2%80%9D

Hey! I'd like to make a

#knbt

channel for a library of mine. The Kotlin slack's code of conduct mentions creating new channels so I'm guessing only moderators can do that now? Maybe?

Any interest in a #fleet channel to discuss working with fleet, share tips & feedbacks? I'm just starting and would love sharing the journey with others. Or is there another place to do this?

Hello! Naming is hard… naming is fun… Would you like a

#naming

channel where we could all write a short description of what the thing we want is about, and have people help on the naming, either to pick one of the ideas we already have, or to bring new ones?

Folks, should we announce new channels we create on #announcements?

I would like to resurface this post once again because I believe it is has consistency and maximizes signal to noise ratio. https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0B8W32VA/p1645632237168149?thread_ts=1644919143.623599&cid=C0B8W32VA The idea of having compose specific posts/insights/questions which are unrelated to a platform makes it easy to subscribe/follow the things you are interested in most In the linked thread, Adam suggests that this is a bad idea for online communities, but I respectfully disagree with the claim, coz as member of this community, I tend to jump and overlook most of compose questions just because most of them are platform specific. The idea of renaming #compose to #compose-android to maintain its members sounds good. And the follow up of creating another channel (be it #compose or #compose-general or #compose-multiplatform) seems convenient. It also sits nicely with the already existing #compose-desktop, #compose-ios, #compose-web and #compose-wear channels. Thoughts??

Hello JetBrains slack team! We are authoring a new pure-Kotlin framework and library for fullstack development with Kotlin Multiplatform. You can think of it kind of like Next.js but for Kotlin. We were wondering if we could humbly request a channel to collaborate in?

The framework is called Elide and I'm happy to pass around links to anyone interested, but it is still relatively early; and relies on some alpha/unstable features in Kotlin. But, with that caveat, it is a working model which we are moving to a production-quality lib. You can try it via Gradle or Docker if interested!
