There are some big improvements coming to reduce the size of generated JS files in Kotlin 1.1.4 (from around 3 MB to 90 KB for a small app for example). 😀 Kotlin 1.1.4 EAP has just been released (https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/kotlin-1-1-4-eap/3721), and it now has dead code elimination for Kotlin JS. 🎉

WOOT, this was the feature that’s been holding me back from using KotlinJS Will dead code removal be done automatically or is it like a post compile step you have to run ?

@janvladimirmostert It’s separate tool, so you should setup it separately. Some more information will be provided later.

ok, I’ll await this information. Hopefully it’s just a param I can set in Maven to take care of it.
