Kotlin beyond Android

" summary

Kotlin code runs beyond Android: a Ktor server with test application handles routes and API tests by simulating requests (no HTTP sockets), builds and deploys to Heroku via CircleCI on pushes, and serves JSON/HTML. Frontend uses Kotlin/JS compiled to JavaScript with React bindings but relies on dynamic for some JS interop. Kotlin/Native produces an iOS framework; expect/actual enables shared modules (used up to presentation layer in the project). It works as a template but native coroutines and IDE/API stability remain rough edges.
