Kotlin wins also because it has a stable and usable Native flavor. Scala Native is a third-party project and seems dead, while Kotlin Native is the core part of the Kotlin language and being developed at a fast pace.
- vips7L 7y agoI don't think this is relevant since both languages compile to JVM bytecode and Graal can compile that to native.
- pjmlp 7y agoKotlin/Native is not semantic compatible with Kotlin code written for the JVM without any regard for other platform's existence. Then there is the total lack of access to the huge JVM eco-system, a less performant automatic memory system, and AOT playing catchup with AOT/JIT tooling available for the JVM, some of which with battlefield experience in production since the early 2000's. And then there is the whole thing that JetBrains gladly sells CLion licenses for the whole development experience with Kotlin/Native.
