Regarding: Interest in speaking / presenting
@Holger Steinhauer [Mod]
Hey everyone, my name is Kishore Reddy.  I just found this channel and the messages about speaking spots for Kotlin and I'm interested in presenting some topics. I've presented at various meetups in New York City on a range of topics in the past, but I've been very focused on Kotlin for the past several years doing "full-stack" Kotlin on Server + Android for mobile apps. I'm specifically interested in presenting  topics that I'm actively working ( listed below ). If these are aligned w/ any of your events / areas of interest, then I'd definitely like to chat and discuss presenting at a future meeting. I'll also DM a few organizers here. Thanks!

Background
I work on a fairly large and modular open-source Kotlin Server Framework called Slate Kit ( kind of like a light-weight, Spring framework in 100% Kotlin, to build Apps, APIs, Jobs, CLIs ), with some modules* *that can be used for both Server + Android ( not yet mutliplatform ). It was extracted out of a start up ( the original startup is no longer around ), and made open-source. It continues to be used in production for  server + mobile app development.

Topics

Slate Kit - Kotlin Server Framework
This is the server framework ( for Console Apps, Apis, CLIs, Jobs ) mentioned above, its stable at this point and available under Apache 2.0

Functional Error-Handling
Accurate modeling of Success and Failure states in Kotlin using Result<T,E> , its a component I designed similar to Kotlins *Result*<T> and/or other ones in Swift/Rust but works differently. This topic can be presented less on the component and more so about the various concepts and approaches to error-handling.

Universal APIs
This is about building APIs using an relatively new/but very simple approach that allows your APIs to be available as Http/Web APIs and/or also available on the command line, or set up to handle events from a queue.
