Spring 5 introduced two major new features, native support of the reactive programming paradigm and the possibility to use Kotlin. There are lots of useful Kotlin extensions in Spring and the new reactive stack looks really appealing for building microservices.

In this session, Oleh Dokuka and Anton Arhipov will cover the process of building a chat application with Spring, Kotlin, and RSocket. They will start with a standard Spring Boot application implemented with Spring MVC. During the session, they will migrate the application to Spring WebFlux with Kotlin coroutines, add non-blocking database access, and add RSocket for streaming the events from the backend to the UI to make the application fully reactive.
