Do a comparison of startup times

[smallshen]

Def graal aot start way faster

[smallshen]

I made compose project under awt compile graal native image successfully almost 2 years ago(of course, tons of manual trick fix), the start up is way faster than normal jvm

[Adam Brown]

once kotlin native is more mature and has done some performance work, I would LOVE a compose desktop native target 🎯

[Adam Brown]

no embedded VM, smaller footprint, ect ect

[Adam Brown]

the fact that flutter for desktop can compile to native is pretty nice

@Adam Brown the issue isn't really Kotlin/Native https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C01D6HTPATV/p1672927848185509?thread_ts=1672883425.690409&amp;cid=C01D6HTPATV

There's experimental support for macos native in Compose Multiplatform.

[Abdelilah El Aissaoui]

Yeah, not for Linux and Windows sadly :(

[Landry Norris]

Maybe some day when iOS and others are stable, they'll be able to start work on that.
