Vote on kTor plugin improvеments 🖖

Hi all! I am working on my version of the kTor plugin and thinking about the functions to cover. After researching several discussions and conduction interviews I came up with a list of features for the new plugin.
Please vote by clicking on the relevant emoji. Thanks!!!

Project creation
🥐 - Automatically pick features, upon which your chosen feature depends
🥖 - A More concise grouping of feature, like in Spring or Vertx (wed, data access, messaging e.t.c)
🥨 - Ability to choose between plain (currently via kTor plugin) or hierarchical (classical, that you get using Gradle) structure of the src/resources folders
🥞 - Ability to create an example project with recommended architecture for Restful service
🧀 - Ability to create an example project with recommended architecture for DB interaction
🍖 - Ability to create an example project with recommended architecture for event messaging
🍔 - Create a project with the support of different environments: dev, test, production, and custom
🍕 - Create a template project for the creation of a new kTor feature

Development/Debugging
🌋 - UI with a list of all current routes (including nested ones) in the current project

Testing
🐵 - Endpoint test results visualization

Deployment
⚽- convenient way to configure deployment to Google
⚾ - convenient way to configure deployment to Azure
🏀 - convenient way to configure deployment to AWS
🏐- convenient way to configure deployment to Heroku
🏈 - convenient way to configure deployment to Jenkins CI/CD
🎾- convenient way to configure deployment to Travis CI/CD

Documentation
🎷 - Swagger API generation and hosting

Refactoring
🚒- UI to change the features used (and all the dependencies) in an existing project
🚕- List of unused features

And of course, you can add any not listed feature in replies to this post :)

html to kotlinx.html conversion

Really great feature list! Could you explain better the first one 🥐 ? I don’t understand what’s supposed to do…

Now when you pick CSS DSL plugin also picks HTML DSL, but I have seen complaints that in some cases the dependencies are not always consistent, so I want plugin to gurantee the consistency

K - I vote for writing Ktor correctly (Ktor not kTor) 😉

@spand we have created a small plugin to do the conversion from html to kotlinx-html: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/12205-html-to-kotlinx-html
