@Stefan Beyer what mechanism would you like to use for the push notifications? I prefer web sockets but there’s also JMS or polling

[Stefan Beyer]

Depends on the project.

Some of them are just file watchers that backup some files. They do not need any web connections.

Other projects poll information from some external rest API. When those need to be influenced by an external souce, I use Ktor to provide a small http endpoint for that.

But that's not really the problem, since this alone is working fine. The problem was to weld a TornadoFX GUI onto an existing thread/coroutine -based console app 🙂
