Building Progressive Web Apps in Kotlin

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Claim: Kotlin compiles to usable Progressive Web Apps with actual examples of service worker registration, offline caching, network-first vs cache-first strategies, and a demo extracting images from a ZIP that successfully displays. Toolchain specifics: Kotlin/JS targeting via Gradle with npm interop, kotlinx.serialization and Ktor client for typed API calls, coroutines wrapping JS promises. Gaps: no union types (workarounds: dynamic or generated externals via dukat), single-file JS output and service-worker bundling require manual workarounds.
