A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

anyone know of a ktor tutorial type page, where it teaches me how to use ktor, and making example apps step-by-step so I can learn? Kinda hard from me to learn with the current setup. Unless im misisng omsetihng

"kotlin blueprints" is a book with one module on ktor . You can check that

any other ideas? I’m not into buying the book. ;/ Especailly not for just one module.

Would any of you recomend <https://github.com/ktorio/ktor-exercises> ?

<@UA001QPFG> Have you checked <https://ktor.io> too?

In order to improve the documentation/learning resources, do you have some feedback? Specially:
How did you find about ktor?
Did you found <https://ktor.io/>?
Did you notice about the ktor-samples repository, or the ktor-exercieses repository?
What kind of learning resource do you miss?
I can try to create/update content to fill the gaps :slightly_smiling_face:

<@U0BLPSJAK> I am currently evaluating the framework to use for one of the service we want to implement. I am new to kotlin and backend development. We have a requirement of reading from dynamodb so wanted to know whether there is a lib/support for it in ktor?

Ktor allows to use any JVM library, so you can use any dynamodb library written for the JVM. Probably there is already an official one

ok cool :+1:  If you have any recommendations for a particular one that would be helpful.

this looks like the offical one: <https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java>

I have a WIP asynchronous dynamodb client here (I did it sometime ago for I still have to migrate it to ktor): 
<https://github.com/soywiz/ktor-cio-clients/tree/master/ktor-client-cio-amazon-dynamodb/src/main/kotlin/com/soywiz/io/ktor/client/amazon/dynamodb>
It will take some time to get production-ready, so I would go with the official sdk for now.
