Not in the frontend or psi2ir, though, so this not a complete
implementation of KT-1436, but rather a part of it that is currently
useful to make other code compile. In particular, lambdas passed to
array constructors and JVM-style `assert` are inlined as IR returnable
blocks, which are then converted into `do { ... } while (false)` loops,
so non-local returns from them become non-local `break`s.
JavaScript Translation
This module performs the translation of Kotlin source code to JavaScript.
There are various Kotlin APIs to JavaScript environments in the standard library.
Compiling the Kotlin Standard Library for JavaScript
The Kotlin Standard Library for JS is built with gradle, see the corresponding module's ReadMe.
Reusing JVM based test cases in JavaScript
Any Kotlin test cases using the org.junit.Test annotation and the kotlin.test package, such as this test case are automatically converted to JavaScript using QUnit.
This allows the test cases to be run directly in a web page in any web browser.
Using the Kotlin Library in JavaScript
There is a simple sample which shows how to use the Kotlin Standard Library from inside JavaScript in a web page.
