video used → Full Guide to Develop a Website with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose – YouTube

​

• Frameworks for web app development include JetPack Compose and Kobweb
• Both frameworks translate kotlin into html, css and javascript but learning the languages would be beneficial
• Framework chosen was Kobweb.
• Download Kobweb binary.
• Within conf.yaml contains the title of the website in question that can be edited.
• Index.kt is the home page.
• MyApp.kt is the website theme.
• To run the server in kobweb you have to use your terminal and create a site directory via cd site
• Then run the server via kobweb run.
• website will then run via local host
• web icon found in resources → public folder
• UI developed within index.kt
• what’s a composable function?
• what’s a modifier?
• fontawesome.com for icons
• live reload allows for websites to be built in real-time rather than restarting the server each time.
• what the hell is an enum class?
• what’s a rest api?
• To export website as a static website in html css and javascript → kobweb export – – layout static
• theres so much i don’t know yet but that’s cool, ill learn it eventually.
