Senior Software Engineer at Noom, formerly Team Lead Engineering at XING. I intend to write about functional programming and occasionally some random engineering topic.
I was wondering if you have plans to support coroutines? I see that you have async support via CompletableFutures but just asking since you're doing pure Kotlin :)
For the co-routines support yes we do! We just wanted to get something out quickly and because of the maturity of CompletableFuture, we decided to go with it first. But, we have already added preliminary co-routines support and we are using it ourselves (it's already available on the next branch).
We still have some work left to do in co-routines area but our approach has been to use the framework ourselves and add whatever is missing (we have written about 10 apps so far using Alpas and most of the new features and libraries have been written for those 10 apps)
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Very interesting project, looks very promising!

First of all, thank you!
