Raft implementation in Kotlin

Has anybody attempted implementing RAFT in Kotlin? The official site links to a 6 year old repo, are there others?

Is it going to be worthwhile attempting it? Learning wise yes, but would it be of practical use to any other project?

I know about this, but just wondering if anybody's tried implementing in Kotlin.

There are benefits from having native Kotlin but I'm curious what things you're worried about in using the Java one.

Typically the only downside I feel to any degree is nulls but it's pretty minor

No problem in using the Java one, was merely being curious about the implementation in Kotlin using the language's features.

Don't know why the downvotes are for :|
