Kotlin on the server with Ktor
summary
Ktor is a Kotlin coroutine-based web framework that shows concrete examples: an embedded Netty server, routing, static files, HTML DSL, multipart file upload, and JSON via kotlinx.serialization or Jackson. Demos include authentication, a tiny custom feature adding header ABC:DEF, and typed routes with Locations. Suspend handlers avoid thread blocking; tests run with withTestApplication without launching a server. Deploy targets include Jetty, Tomcat, CIO, Docker, Kubernetes, Heroku and Google Cloud.
