[Miquel Àngel Román]

Can you use the kotlin native compiler to compile a server-side ktor app? (Assuming no java dependencies are used from the user-code)

[Big Chungus]

Ktor itself depends on java apis, so no

[Miquel Àngel Román]

That’s the answer I was looking for, thanks

[Big Chungus]

Native ktor server is in the works, though

[Big Chungus]

You might have some success with graalvm native-image for now

[Miquel Àngel Román]

thanks!
