hii i want to use http4k with postgres but i have no idea how to integrate it after scrambling through google 😂 can someone give me some hints or example

http4k doesn't include database-related features, but you can check out @dmcg’s example (and watch his videos, too - may be a good starting point) for what we consider a sensible way of integrating database code in Kotlin.

Hey, This article might also be a good starting point, as it shows raw JBDC and using Exposed. https://betterprogramming.pub/testable-database-repositories-in-kotlin-36277c523140?gi=622d2b783c96

Taking a step back here. The better question is more along the lines of "How do I use postgres with kotlin/java"? Only highly opinionated frameworks like spring, django, or rails will come with their own database integrations. For pretty much any SQL database in Java/Kotlin, the simplest solution is to use the built-in JDBC interface (with a suitable JDBC driver for postgres). However, as Oliver and Ivan pointed out, there are many framework-agnostic database tools out there, like Exposed, jOOQ, and SqlDelight. These tools don't always make things simpler, but they tend to be safer, and can be more maintainable at scale.

Here's a comparison between Exposed and SqlDelight by Daniel M. Ramos https://www.47deg.com/blog/database-persistence-in-kotlin-part-1/
