Serverless Development With Kotlin and Kotless

on YouTube ↗15m

" summary

Kotless claims to take Ktor, Spring or its own DSL, introspect routes and annotations and produce a cloud deployment by generating a cloud-agnostic schema that it transpiles into Terraform. Current concrete support is AWS (API Gateway + Lambda), JVM runtime with GraalVM beta and Kotlin/JS in progress. Demo is a Ktor URL shortener using DynamoDB, Gradle plugin id "io.kotless" version "0.1.7", plus a local start that runs full cloud emulation and creates the DynamoDB table via Terraform extensions.
