05/25/2017, 11:59 AM@edvin I'm wondering about your thinking on this, REST client capability seems like a separate concern from that of a UI framework. There are other REST clients around for Kotlin, no?

05/25/2017, 12:38 PM@kastork In my mind, many desktop applications these days talks to a REST endpoint. Therefore it's nice to have strong JSON + Rest support, while allowing the developer to use another implementation without getting in the way. For the common case you can't do it more conveniently than the built in support, and I think most developers will be happy with that. No need to figure out how to use framework x with TornadoFX 🙂
