I learned a lot about calling Kotlin/JS from JavaScript while implementing this same for using KFSM.

I would prefer Kotlin/JS all the way but that isn't the reality because there are so many JS tools involved in building JavaScript for the browsers.
Here is my Kotlin/JS version for comparison. https://github.com/open-jumpco/kfsm-web

All those tools are taken care of for you with the Kotlin/Js Gradle plugin

Unless you need SASS or something like that, then you need to configure webpack

[gbaldeck]

which is definitely still possible with the kotlin/js gradle plugin, its just the documentation for all this is still not there yet. Its improved over the last year, but it needs a dedicated group to really get it up to speed

If love how far it has come and being able to do more without leaving Kotlin/JS, the typescript tooling is also getting better.
Soon we'll have WebAssembly and some powerful frameworks will follow.
