I started experimenting with kobweb - it seems to be great 🙂
After playing with a sample application, I tried to convert a simple real project to it, and I had following issues:
• the app makes some initialization by calling a suspend function before rendering the compose UI
• because of the previous requirement, it uses a suspend main() function
What are your suggestions to these? Thanks.

(I had some other issues - possibly related to a KSP processor - but I have to investigate it further after the above problem is solved...)

Apologies, I lost this question in the noise.

Did you ever figure it out? Normally, to get into a suspend context in a @Page or Compose HTML more generally, the few ways I'm aware are...

• use val scope = rememberCoroutineScope() and then launch from it
• use LaunchedEffect(Unit), as the launch block in there is suspend scope
• use CoroutineScope(window.asCoroutineDispatcher()).launch { ... }
