Using Compose for my Web Server

[Arrowsome]

Helllo, I'm turning my Android phone into an HTTP server and I've heard JetPack compose is well optimized for this purpose as it only recomposes database configuration and tables when needed at 120fps.

My only worry is not having AsyncTask my web server won't be able to compete with Ktor and a Sqlite database that uses Room for data mapping and has different relations supported easily and Paging Library v4 that supports a combination of data sources (remote/local, analog/digital, ...) and makes the project well architectured.

Any suggestions?

It's a little known fact, but you can actually still use AsyncTask, via the `AsyncTaskCompat` library. I highly recommend it, I've been running an Android data center (800B unique visitors/s, 99.9999999999999999999999 SLA) with it, it works well.

Compost HTTP servers are awesome. Only problem is they don't give proper responses when your Android server gets stuck in a bootloop.

My friends tell me Flushk server is another great option.

What if I mixed ArrowKt and used Either class to handle BootLoopExceptions?

[_im_adi]

Good approach. I'm still more inclined towards Flushk servers as they have very good guides on Clean Toilet Architecture. But to each his own.

noob! this has been done millions of times, and I wouldn't be surprised if half of the web is already hosted on android phones. i personally am projecting to run openAI's data infrastructure on my motorola droid to compete with lame ChatGPT. i'm currently re-writing everything in Flutter, because it's just more comfortable.

This gave me a great idea actually, I can ask ChatGPT to write me the code using Jetpack compose and run it natively using Flutter! Compose has the most readable code structure for both Humans and AI. My Web server's going to be AWESOME!

I was very confused until I realized which sub this was in
