Hey guys, in theory how hard would it be to do real-time interpretation of Kotlin code? Is there anyone doing anything like this now? Without safety and performance optimisations of course

Kotlin has scripting support, is that what you mean?https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/master/libraries/examples/kotlin-jsr223-local-example/src/test/kotlin/org/jetbrains/kotlin/script/jsr223/KotlinJsr223ScriptEngineIT.kt If yes than it's already implemented :)

Does that just compile it and run it ? That's got like a 2s delay right?

Are you looking for a REPL?

Looking for a way to have much faster write code to run code time for quick UI previews

No, it's interpreted, good response times but worse Performance compared to regular compilation. I think what you search is this one: Another alternative would be kotlin js with continuous run in gradle, all depending on what ui you need and so on.

Oh that's really awesome, thanks for sharing @Hanno. I'll have a play around
