from the other direction, it looks like haxe [http://haxe.org http://haxe.org] is planning on adding a java target. fantom [http://fantom.org http://fantom.org] already does both java and js too. it's a pretty well-filled ecological niche.
also, if you like single-language stacks, give opa [http://opalang.org http://opalang.org] a serious look. it's essentially based on ml, with a javascript skin, and offers strong static typing and easy integration of front-end and back-end code.

My impression from the forum is that kotlin is not quite settled but I haven't written any code. http://devnet.jetbrains.net/community/kotlin?view=discussions http://devnet.jetbrains.net/community/kotlin?view=discussion... http://www.eclipse.org/xtend/ http://www.eclipse.org/xtend/
- yareally 14y agoI'm glad you brought Opa up. I saw it a while ago and thought it was interesting, until I saw the license it used (AGPL). Thankfully, your comment made me seek it out again and I saw they also added MIT for the framework part, so that apps can be licensed in any language. Will have to try it out now that they have given users that choice.
