I'm pretty-well bought into Kotlin at this point across the whole stack. I love using Ktor for server-side apps, I'm primarily an Android dev where Kotlin has its greatest usage right now, and the fact that I can write Kotlin instead of JS just makes me giddy. Especially using this all together with MPP, sharing data models and logic is just wonderful and such a pleasant development experience.

I'm in the midst of learning Kotlin. I introduced it at work, and it's pretty much just a way for me to get some functional programming in our Java 6 EE-targeted application.

Do you have (or know of) any open-source examples with Kotlin across the whole stack? My "learning" part is writing an application which, for now, uses Angular on the front end.

And, for data access, do you use Exposed, Hibernate/JPA, roll your own, or something else?
