Kotlin on the Backend Without Spring?

Kotlin on the Backend Without Spring?

Bored with the constant use of Spring in commercial projects, I decided to investigate the use of an alternative tech stack.

One of the prevalent alternatives is Micronaut. We have already tried it out at Evojam and even successfully implemented it in production in a few microservices.

That made me think — what if we use something even smaller? As we are starting to use Kotlin instead of Java boldly, I couldn't help but consider using Ktor.

See the results of my experiment!

Switching from Java to Kotlin

Switching from Java to Kotlin

Kotlin has been growing in popularity for quite some time now. We decided to introduce it for a commercial project and see how it influences our work.

It's been a month since we made a switch from Java to Kotlin. In this article, we want to share with you our insights and conclusions based on this time.

I invited my fellow developers, so they can put their own perspective on using Kotlin.
