The Art of KMP: how I learned backend development with Kotlin and why you should too
summary
Builds a KMP backend for a KMM app called KMPizza and proves it works end to end: shares models in a common module, spins up a Ktor server, packages with ShadowJar and runs locally, implements GET/POST endpoints, stores data with Exposed + Postgres, injects dependencies with Koin, hosts images on AWS S3, and deploys first to Heroku then to Fly. Demonstrates concrete setup steps, tooling choices, migration notes and pain points.
