Today, I’m writing a followup for my KotlinConf talk on Kotlin, TornadoFX, and metaprogramming. In the talk, I draw generalized definitions of crosscutting and explore common forms of metaprogramming. We explored TornadoFX features written in Kotlin to examine the functional characteristics of the language. In retrospect, I wish I had focused on talking about my applied research a bit more, so I’m here to talk about where I’ve been and where I’m going!
