Does this example work for you? https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-frontend-plugin/blob/master/examples/frontend-only/build.gradle

FYI: we are working hard to move all features of the kotlin-frontend-plugin to the main kotlin gradle plugin. I belive this should work out-of-box with something simple like:

kotlin {
   browser {
     ...
   }
}

Including running tests, building bundle, debugging, etc.

so that means, the gradle-frontend-plgin is not dead? that's great news! it didn't look like it was activley developed a few weeks ago, which was the reason i didn't didn't consider using it...

@snrostov do you have a link that documents the kotlin.browser thing you mentioned? Does it already exist? Or is this just a reference to what you are working on?

[napperley]

Are there plans to ensure that the Kotlin Frontend plugin supports Gradle Kotlin DSL just like the Kotlin Multiplatform plugin?

[snrostov]

@uli no docs at the moment. Moreover, we can not promise that in the end it will look that way. One thing is for sure: running tests, building bundle, debugging should be as easy as for Java.

@napperley The plan is to move all features to the main Gradle Plugin. It will definitely support Gradle Kotlin DSL.
