JS as a compilation target is supported by kotlin out of the box. You can use any js framework and IIRC it even understands typescript type annotations. I'm super pumped about kotlin, can't wait to write a whole app, backend and front-end in it.

Wow. I had no idea. That’s great to know. Thanks for relaying that info. Do you have any further resources you recommend with regards to this?

Here's a whole stack app built by JetBrains themselves in Kotlin with React for front end https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-fullstack-sample
