Exposed is a lightweight open source library built from the ground up using Kotlin. It provides you with two ways of interacting with relational data - either using a Data Access Object approach, or via a DSL that provide strongly-typed SQL-like syntax. In this presentation we'll cover the basics of Exposed and how to get up and running with it, no matter the approach used. We'll bake into real-world usage scenarios by combing it with a server-side application built in Ktor.
