Any good tutorial for Kotlin as a JS replacement? I am one of those people hating JS (and I did some very advanced JS web apps pushing technological possibilities) and would love to have something sane before WebAssembly can completely obliterate JS and I can switch to whatever language I like. Thanks for any hints!

This is exactly what I'm waiting for.

I never tried Kotlin, but I'm working with Scala.js since 1.5 years and am very happy with it: http://www.scala-js.org This made me love the frontend again.

I'd really like this too, especially to see what it looks like in a react native world.

Being able to compile to 2/3 platforms would be a huge plus
