Spring + Kotlin = Modern + Reactive + Productive by: Josh Long and James Ward

Recording brought to you by American Express. americanexpress.io/kotlin-jobs
The combination of Spring and Kotlin is a winning combo for building modern, reactive, and productive servers. This talk will walk through how Spring & Kotlin fit together with coroutines, R2DBC, Testcontainers, and Kotlin/JS for the web UI. Come for Kotlin, stay for the ASCII art!
This session is co-presented by Josh Long, Spring Developer Advocate at VMware and James Ward, Kotlin Product Manager at Google.

Phehe got me.

Great video, thanks!

[@_Superpants]

Very cool stuff. 🔥

[@jcolindres001]

Hello All, What would your choice be for a server side project: Kotlin + Ktor or Kotlin + Spring Boot? Thanks,

[@jesprotech]

How odd is it that all the presentations at this conference that I really enjoy are the ones with fewer views? Point made at 3:41! I migrated everything I have to Java 17 and the remaining stuff is there because of some odd incompatible libraries. Love the AOT explanation, the GraalVM fun downtime elevator music bit, the WASM application, and of course the multiplatform example with examples of some of the less known Kotlin keywords for people outside Android and desktop application development like external, expected, and actual. Great fun to watch and very very relatable.

Because there are fewer seniors and fewer of them watch videos

I wonder how different will it be with introduction of Look.

[@ArtemKhodos]

You are wizzards, guys!

[@jafajarvis324]

New syntax looks like ktor framework

[@aortizc82]

How come I never thought of the elevator music feature while compiling? 😂

[@fResult]

how can I get the `uao` command in the 5:19? (I tried looking for it in the Homebrew, but couldn't find it.)

[@FeinesFabi]

google for: uao command - unzip your project and import to intellij automatically

This video confirms just how much i hate spring boot and its magic. Kotlin gives us enough developer experience i don't need any more magic.

[@user-zk1os9jq7v]

Does that mean you don't understand the Springs logic under the hood?

[@oumardicko5593]

@@user-zk1os9jq7v I am a go developer. I have used kotlin+ktor for some time and was pretty happy with it until I came to spring. It was a nightmare. The documentation is trash and outdated, too much abstraction and magic going on under the hood. For someone trying to build something quickly, I can tell you that it's a nightmare
