What we're about
Welcome to the Chicago Kotlin Users group! We are a group of lovely people interested in this fun and new language that is quickly winning popularity on the JVM and spreading to JS and Native. Come join us and learn more about this neat, pragmatic language, the ecosystem surrounding it and what Kotlin can do for you! We hope to have interesting presenters/talks and presentations once a month.
The opinions and actions of the community are independent of the Kotlin team.

Coroutine Cancellation: Don't do more work than you need
Fabio Gottlicher
Kotlin coroutines are an indispensable part of the Kotlin ecosystem and a handy tool for asynchronous programming. Whether we're developing a UI application or server-side back-end, we must be ready for the possibility of our work being interrupted at any time. Luckily, the coroutine framework gives us great options for managing cancellations. In this talk, we'll go from the basic to more advanced use cases of cancelling coroutines and handling cleanup to make sure our apps are running smoothly and not doing more work than needed.

Tim Abil
Join this talk to discover the advantages of Kotlin compiler plugins over KSP and annotation processors. Explore their various use cases, learn where to start when developing your own compiler plugin, and gain insights into the development of a plugin that generates Swagger specifications for Ktor.
