I wonder how many Kotlin developers use Kotlin for backend development and how they use it.

rom your perspective, how are Kotlin developers distributed across different areas, such as Android, backend, desktop, and others?

I've been using Kotlin for backend development (web apps, websites, and microservices) for some time, and I'm curious how others are using it in this area.

For example, are you using Ktor, Jetty, or a framework or application server you've built yourself to meet your specific needs?

If you're doing backend development with Kotlin, please share your setup.

Here's mine:

• Framework: A small custom framework built on Jetty
• Database: PostgreSQL
• OS: Ubuntu
• Dependency injection: Dagger
• Template engines: Velocity and JTE
• Admin panel: AdminLTE
