Hi I came across this

Question

Hi < David Herman> I came across this Is there any possible relationship integration with kobweb

David Herman · Answer

Created by a regular Kobweb user

David Herman · Answer

Kobweb has a bunch of parts and one of the parts is Silk the bundled UI framework that s still somewhat early days Since Kobweb is compatible with existing JS libraries some users are adding bindings to their own favorite UI toolkits which I think is great

David Herman · Answer

Another recent one is <https github com stevdza san KotlinBootstrap>

David Herman · Answer

Personally I m more than happy for people to use Kobweb w o Silk especially while Silk is still in its WIP state

David Herman · Answer

0 14 1 a release coming out within a few days was refactored quite a bit to make this split even better even though hopefully the change will be mostly invisible to most users

David Herman · Answer

Sounds good I can t help too much with shadcn at the moment but if you try stuff out and run into questions I m sure you can ask here

Funyinoluwa Kashimawo · Answer

Fore sure thank you very much for the amazing work you do Js and reactnative have been robbing it in our faces android for a while But now the calvary has arrived kotlin intensifies purple muscle

David Herman · Answer

Hahaha thanks for the kind words

David Herman · Answer

Each system has its own pros and cons I wish Kotlin JS could be as small and as quick to live reload as writing directly in JS TS it s not a fair comparison of course since the browser comes with the JS runtime bundled But I love the Compose APIs and I think Compose HTML is an incredible piece of tech that lets us write and reuse Kotlin but on the web kodee pin

Funyinoluwa Kashimawo · Answer

Awesome take I totally agree The pro s and cons are important One particular pro in this case which I plan to use a strategy is to pitch to users who already have a mobile app and are looking to share their business logic This Js can t do

David Herman · Answer

Definitely That s one of the pros that can t be denied

David Herman · Answer

It s also fun to write a fullstack Kobweb application where you share business logic between the frontend and the backend All in Kotlin heart

Funyinoluwa Kashimawo · Answer

Absolutely Kotlin just flows easy

David Herman · Answer

If that s a coroutine flow joke I approve
