I’m looking forward to progress in Jetpack compose - a cross-platform UI builder for Kotlin. Idk if it beats Java AWT/Swing/JavaFX yet though.



From my experience, it already does. It's also made Android development an order of magnitude more pleasant.


Are there any apps in Compose with binaries downloadable to see how polished it is? Be nice to compare with Electron things.


https://www.jetbrains.com/toolbox-app/ is the first Jetbrains app that's been ported to Compose. Note that Compose Desktop is still in alpha, pre-release stage.
