Sir pls make some tutorial to consume API in Kobweb for frontend web.

[@StevdzaSan]

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely work on that one.

[@reycataal8033]

Good suggestion. I tried googling, cant find any.

[@kaushikkaransingh3240]

Keep making this awesome tutorials 💫

[@dinarastepina8707]

you’re so underrated!

[@PrashantSingh-d97]

Hi, @StevdzaSan your videos are so good and easy to understand. It helps me a lot to learn and seek the best of the best.
Can you create a video on nested lazy Columns/Rows or share some ideas? I will be grateful.

[@OgabekDev]

You are doing great. One more thing, how to request body while sending more information to api

[@ataytaygaraev4298]

There is also Spring Boot with kotlin. This framework much more popular and has large support community

[@azlanj]

awesome content, thanks and keep uploading stuff like this

[@chax255]

This was fun to watch.. Maybe because I love kt

[@LeonardoMorales08]

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing this content.

[@gvharish9894]

can anyone share any article or video to connect database in kobweb?

[@simba_go]

Hi, how to deploy manually to VPS server?.. using ssh.. and how to build app too, its a jar file?..
thanks

[@brayn7504]

This is actually a really great tutorial and didn't know we can have free webserver that serves our API. Here you are hardcoding the JSON response, is it possible to access it from a database and create data using, for example, createUser and then getPerson? Does Render has some sort of data storage capabilities too?

[@StevdzaSan]

We could use a mongodb, I'll do a full course and even a video tutorial on that topic.

[@frankyjunior6005]

@@StevdzaSan please make a course with postgres and jwt instead of using mongo db. Thank you

[@sohailabbas007]

Awesome content, make more videos on ktor and kob-web, topics like websockets and stuff, would really be helpful,
Also i would buy a course dedicated to ktor, backend development using kotlin, would be really helpful.

[@dinarastepina8707]

this!

[@isaacmutahi4158]

Also now that we have projects built in ktor. Show us how we can add kobweb to our ktor projects and create frontends on top of oyr existing servera in intelij. Thanls

[@harshv.tewari6869]

What's the name of the theme ? and where i can find it

[@StevdzaSan]

That's the new UI - Beta UI of Intelij IDEA.

[@tariqhussain4268]

This is good and easy to understand tutorial. Can you also make a tutorial for hosting Ktor REST apis.

[@selebdroid6423]

Cool, thank you

[@mustafatoktas]

@StevdzaSan Hello. I have Cpanel hosting service. How can I run my own API that I wrote on my Cpanel hosting service?

[@isaacmutahi4158]

I have bought courses bro you and they are always well explained. The boruto app. Kindly show us how we can make webpages such us landingpages on top of existing ktor projects using kobweb

[@diegofarias1987]

Thanks for sharing. Where did you get the code for the Dockerfile?

[@StevdzaSan]

From the Kobweb owner: github.com/bitspittle/kobweb-todo-on-render/blob/main/Dockerfile

[@Zeeshan-Syed]

Isn't there any feature like ContentNegotiation as in Ktor instead of converting object to json manually?

[@StevdzaSan]

You could create a generic function that will do that for your.

[@Bitspittle]

For a specific example of what Stevdza-san was suggesting, you can add the following code to your Kobweb server project:
```
inline fun Response.setBody(bodyObject: T) {
setBodyText(Json.encodeToString(bodyObject))
}
```
With that, you could change his example code to:
```
context.res.setBody(ApiResponse.Success(...))
```

[@frankyjunior6005]

What is different with ktor?

[@StevdzaSan]

This one is built on top of the Ktor, and it is used along with Kobweb to connect it to the frontend as well.

[@frankyjunior6005]

@@StevdzaSan nice will try it, another question is the syntax is sam between ktor and kobweb api?
