Not sure what you mean by "- OCaml vs Kotlin: no JVM needed." as Kotlin has support for native and JavaScript compilation, and WASM via native.

- thayne 4y agoMaybe it's changed in the year or so since I looked at kotlin, but my impression when I did look at it was support for anything other than the JVM was definitely second class
- toolslive 4y agoso it's either a JVM or either no libraries?
- pjmlp 4y agoKotlin has a crude support for native, and they had to reboot the implementation as they got clever and went with a memory model incompatible with JVM and JS GCs, thus making code portability an headache.
- wiseowise 4y agoDid you even try it? It still requires Java, Gradle and Kotlin compiler to work. Also, good luck making it work without using Intellij.
