How to use the compiler I got by running gradle dist to compile the repo itself ? Made some changes to compiler, worrying that the test case may not be comprehensive enough.

We at Kotlin/Py are using the binaries generated in dist dir like this: https://github.com/krzema12/kotlin-python/blob/python-backend/python/experiments/README.md#generating-with-ir-backend

Should be similar for other targets

First, do ./gradlew publish, after that you can invoke gradle with -Pbootstrap.local flag (or bootstrap.local=true line in local.properties file) to use those locally published artifacts for compiling Kotlin.

@ilya.gorbunov gradlew publish failed for task :kotlin-test-js-runner:yarnSetup

From the stacktrace, it looks like the problem is in parsing Uri in getProxyUri function. Do you have some proxy settings configured?

@ilya.gorbunov Thank you for your kind response. It's weird, if I manually execute npm install yarn in the same npm directory with the same options, the error disappears. Run ./gradlew publish in wsl2, there is no error too, the error seems to only happen on Windows.

Finally, I bump the version of Node from 16.2.0 to 16.7.0, the error disappears on Windows too. Now I can move on.
