David Denton and Ivan Sanchez introduce http4k and demonstrate how the server-as-a-function approach simplifies testing and HTTP application design.

This session is a practical introduction to http4k, a functional toolkit for writing Kotlin HTTP applications for Server, Serverless, or Native runtimes. Using the Server as a Function approach, you’ll learn how to take advantage of the uniform client and server interfaces to easily create production-ready HTTP applications with zero magic. You’ll also see how this approach unlocks powerful testing techniques that result in super-fast tests that are both well-factored and simple to write.
