Ktor 3.6.0 Is Now Available!
Ktor 3.6.0 introduces experimental typed authentication with full type safety, including role-based access and anonymous users, plus a dedicated OpenID Connect plugin that supports sessions and auto-refreshing tokens, and experimental HTTP/3 support for the Netty engine via QUIC. Request-parameter conversion now supports Kotlin’s Uuid, Byte, and unsigned numeric types, while receive() accepts nullable types, deprecating receiveNullable(), and more flexible routing syntax. The ContentNegotiation plugin gains a ContentTypeMergeStrategy.SkipIfPresent to preserve explicit Accept headers. Kotlin Multiplatform projects benefit from the ktor-client-engine-defaults artifact and file-based HttpCache storage using kotlinx-io Path, simplifying cross-platform configuration. Additional improvements include respondHtmlPartial for partial HTML output, asynchronous DNS resolution for the CIO engine, and WebRTC support for JVM.

The best engineering reads, once a week.
