A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I need to say Compose (desktop) is *amazing!* It shares my beloved functional composition model we used in <#C0A974TJ9|ktor> and it makes it really easy to build UI components and reuse them across the system. It is relatively easy to learn (for me), so I went from demo app to a game prototype in about 10 hours of learning and experimenting (it’s idle/incremental genre, so no complex 2D/3D rendering is required). I was pleasantly surprised (should I?) that most things just work without any effort, and everything looks truly incremental. There are small things that looks missing or I’d do slightly differently, but I’ll share them separately. Thanks everyone involved for this awesome UI framework and incremental computation system. I’m looking forward for it to become truly multiplatform to build native apps (no JVM involved) for all platforms, including web.
