Hexagon

Hexagon is a microservices toolkit written in Kotlin. Its purpose is to ease the building of server applications (Web applications or APIs) that run inside a cloud platform. The Hexagon Toolkit provides several libraries to build server applications. These libraries provide single standalone features and are referred to as "Ports".

Features

Supports HTTPS, HTTP/2, mutual TLS, static files (serve and upload), forms processing, cookies, CORS and more
Hexagon is designed to fit in applications that conform to the Hexagonal Architecture
There is no code generation, no runtime annotation processing, no classpath based logic, and no implicit behaviour
Each feature (Port) or adapter is isolated in its own modul
Every Port may have many implementations (Adapters) using different technologies
It contains all the required pieces to make production-grade applications
