		lisbbb 9 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Go is still not good I have only used Kotlin on the JVM. You're saying there's a way to avoid the JVM and build binaries with it? Gotta go look that up. The problem with Kotlin is not the language but finding jobs using it can be spotty. "Kotlin specialist" isn't really a thing at all. You can find more Golang and Python jobs than Kotlin.

there are two ways to achieve native binaries with Kotlin: 1) Kotlin native https://kotlinlang.org/docs/native-overview.html 2) Kotlin JVM but use GraalVM https://www.graalvm.org/ (which creates a binary of your program combined with GraalVM)
