Oh man, good food for thought.
I guess... "Compilation of Kotlin, then emittance of JS"?
Because I believe this uses the shared "FIR" IR that the JVM/Native backends use right?
This is why the whole argument/topic is so subjective/pedantic haha.
- ptx 5y agoYup, the backend IR is shared between JVM, JS (beta) and Native. The new frontend IR, I realize on second thought, will come later[1] with the K2 compiler frontend. The old Kotlin/JS compiler is definitely closer than the new one to what might be called transpiler.
