Ktor - Ktor is a Kotlin framework that allow developers to write asynchronous clients and servers applications, in Kotlin. While it's not entirely compatible, Ktor is targeting multiple platforms as JVM, JavaScript, Android and iOS. JetBrains is working on making other platforms, like MacOS, Linux and Windows compatible. - Google

You can check Kotlin documentation itself which mentions several options. https://kotlinlang.org/docs/server-overview.html Yes, Ktor is one of them https://ktor.io/ And several notable frameworks that were originally written for Java, now support programming purely in Kotlin. https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-kotlin/ https://vaadin.com/docs/v14/guide/start/kotlin https://quarkus.io/guides/kotlin https://guides.micronaut.io/latest/creating-your-first-micronaut-app.html The advantage of more established frameworks is that they have plugins and solutions for everything, and plenty of training materials and examples available online. But each of them has their own unique conventions and programming style..
