KotlinConf 2026

München, 21.–22. mai 2026. JetBrains’ årlige Kotlin-konferanse. To dager, seks parallelle spor, 84 sesjoner (foredrag, lyntaler og keynotes). De fleste videoene ble publisert på Kotlin sin offisielle YouTube-kanal i juli og august 2026 og er også lenket fra kotlinconf.com/talks/. Seks sesjoner mangler fortsatt individuelle opptak (markert med ⏳ i listene under), og jeg lenker dem inn etter hvert.

Anbefalt: Topp 5 fra ønskelisten

Hvis du bare skal se noen få opptak, er dette mine anbefalinger fra foredragene jeg selv gikk glipp av, valgt fordi de spinner videre på temaer jeg fulgte tett (AI-agenter, Ktor/backend, språkdesign):

Full-Stack Kotlin AI: Powering Compose Multiplatform apps with Koog & MCP — John O’Reilly. Praktisk demo av Koog + Kotlin MCP SDK i en Compose Multiplatform-app, med hopp mellom sky-LLM og on-device. Direkte oppfølging til Briliantovs Koog-foredrag.
How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Value Semantics (in Kotlin) — Marat Akhin. Dybden bak multi-field value classes (eksperimentelt i 2.5) med benchmarks. Passer bra ved siden av Local Lifetimes og Context parameters.
How Kotlin Powers Functional Design: MCP Edition — David Denton (http4k). Skarp kritikk av offisielle MCP SDK-er + en spec-kompatibel MCP-server på ~50 linjer med http4k. Bra motstemme til hovedstrømmen.
Automate upgrading to Kotlin 2 with OpenRewrite — Rooz SF, Jonathan Schneider. Umiddelbart nyttig for oppgraderingsjobber: deterministiske recipes over Lossless Semantic Trees.
The Backend Immune System — Meike Felicia Hammer. Rike feiltyper + Ktor observability + små deterministiske lokale «immunagenter» innenfor request-grensen. Fint komplement til Vergauwens Ktor-foredrag.
