Create React apps using Kotlin

Intriguing approach. Anyone know if there's a write-up somewhere from somebody that's tried it? It's always helpful to learn from the gotchas others have run into.

JS as a compilation target is supported by kotlin out of the box. You can use any js framework and IIRC it even understands typescript type annotations. I'm super pumped about kotlin, can't wait to write a whole app, backend and front-end in it.

Wow. I had no idea. That’s great to know. Thanks for relaying that info. Do you have any further resources you recommend with regards to this?

Here's a whole stack app built by JetBrains themselves in Kotlin with React for front end https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-fullstack-sample

This is all fairly new stuff so there're probably few users outside of JetBrains. Check out https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlinconf-app, it's all written in Kotlin — backend, frontend, everything.
