A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Hello, I want to make a Kotlin server using ktor for my game, which will have both Android and Desktop builds(using libgdx). Both the android and desktop versions of the game will use a main server which the users game instance connects to and gets the players data from. The question is how could I make such a server using Ktor,for example, should I use raw connections and use SSL for that?
Any suggestions could be appreciated
