can i implement a Kotlin interface from JS?

[napperley]

Out of curiosity what are you using Kotlin JS for?

Just experimenting to gauge future potential

Yes, it's possible

You should mark your interface as external

[konsoletyper]

And then simply create an object in JS which provides all corresponding member functions and properties, with names maching those in the Kotlin interface

[konsoletyper]

As for non-external interfaces, well, it's not recommended, but you still can do it. Please, look at classes generated by kotlinc-js. The only difference (addition) with pure JavaScript classes is additional static property called $metadata$. Also, you have to copy non-abstract functions manually.

Awesome I'll give it a try. Thanks!
