hello, i want to ask about kotlin jvm. after you compile it to java bytecode, is it possible to bundle it in such a way that computers without java can run it?
t
Kotlin can be compiled to native, maybe that's what what you are looking for?
c
i realised that kotlin native cannot use java libraries (like java.io.File) so i'm considering kotlin jvm
e
jlink can bundle a necessary subset of the JVM with your app. or Graal native-image can perform AOT compilation to a native executable
c
oh i've heard of graal. i'll take a look, thanks
