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!
