i made a starter project for creating admin websites using kotlin: https://github.com/tipsy/kotlin-admin-template

Looks nice, but would be even better if the frontend would be kotlin (react?) as well ;)

[Big Chungus]

Perhaps even packaged as a web jar

[tipsy]

i disagree with that

[tipsy]

there is a huge community around react/vue as pure frontend technologies, if you do kotlinjs you're joining a very niche community

[Big Chungus]

Not necessarily. KotlinReact project can be incorporated into regular react project, so there's no such hard line between the two communities.

[Big Chungus]

But not sure if kotlin js is even an option if you want to stick with vue.

[tipsy]

the fact that it's not an option if you want to use a certain library is enough for me to disqualify it

[tipsy]

i've burned my hand too many times on technology trying to abstract away the frontend layer

[tipsy]

this is not a very frontend heavy app, each view has a small vue app with a very limited set of interactions

[tipsy]

but if i were to make a frontend heavy app i would use typescript rather than kotlin
