A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I missed the AMA stuff the other day, but doesn't seem like scripting was talked about from what I see. Would be nice to get them more ironed out as scripting support and hot swapping for them would be epic to have working consistently. Right now lots of people I know have issues setting up basic projects that can use Kotlin scripts (sometimes code completion works and other times nothing resolves without build and/or explicit imports) and there seems like too much ambiguity surrounding the difference in .kts files being scripts themselves or just free floating Kotlin code files and then the necessity to define things like .main.kts and their derivatives with handler script extension registers like above. Ideally should a .kts not just be Kotlin script that can be arbitrarily executed by Kotlin classes as a Script without the need for all the boilerplate?
