Kotlin - Overview (Post 1)

Hi All,

Today I am going to start a new series i.e. Kotlin Tutorial , which facilitates us to write android codes with the help of Kotlin language.

Now the question is what is the need of switching from Java to Kotlin .
Let's take a look for Kotlin Overview.

Kotlin is an open-source, statically-typed programming language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming. Kotlin provides similar syntax and concepts from other languages, including C#, Java, and Scala, among many others. Kotlin does not aim to be unique—instead, it draws inspiration from decades of language development. It exists in variants that target the JVM (Kotlin/JVM), JavaScript (Kotlin/JS), and native code (Kotlin/Native). (As per Developer Site)


Kotlin Advantages :

  • Easy Language 
  •  Reduce lots of boiler plate code
  • Better Runtime and Performance
  • Interoperability 
  • Brand New 

We can use Kotlin , in any exiting application. Also  we can create new application with Kotlin language. JAVA 8 would be needed to installed in system and java path should be added in environment variable.
In next post I will share , some basic variable declaration and many more.
