A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Hullo! I'm trying to make use of the `javax.script` support that was introduced in Kotlin 1.1, however the first line always throws a `NullPointerException`.
```
val engine = ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByExtension("kts")!!
engine.eval("val x = 3")
println(engine.eval("x + 2"))  // Prints out 5
```
I'm extremely new to this language and its tooling, is there something obvious I'm missing? I was under the impression that it would sort of just "come with" the language but I wouldn't be surprised at all if I need to install a dependency or two. My google skills have been failing me unfortunately.

I have no hands-on experience but from what I have found it seems like you may indeed be missing a dependency. If you are using gradle, this might be helpful:

I'll give it try, thanks :slightly_smiling_face:
