The problem with all these attempts to port technologies to new fields is that people who chose to be Kotlin developers also made a choice to not be web developers. And web developers have already decided they're more than happy with JavaScript and are certainly not going to change now because we've made something for them that "we" think it's better.
Some people do not know if they're gonna do web dev or whatever when they learn programming for the first time. And even once they figure it out and learn the respective tool, not everyone gets the job they want or a job that requires them to only do what they're good at. Also consider that the landscape of programming languages will always shift with new generations of problems and problem solvers.
Nice talk, thank you. I really can't understand purposes for creating KotlinJS, it isn't seem too beneficial. There is typescript while tooling in kotlin world are pretty heavy
How good is the performance on a PWA with Kotlin?
It doesn't matter how you make them. PWAs are not apps.

It's productivity that matters. For a small group of team, using same language across platform is better.
Do you have any examples of how you can use Kotlin for something useful instead of wasting time on PWAs?
Nice talk, thank you.
