Kotlin is an open-source, statically typed programming language created by JetBrains. It is designed to target various platforms, including the JVM, Android, JavaScript, and Native.
Kotlin is a modern and well-established programming language with the primary goal of enhancing developer satisfaction. It offers conciseness, safety, interoperability with Java and other programming languages, and multiple approaches to code reuse across different platforms, facilitating efficient programming. Kotlin finds application in a wide range of development scenarios, including server-side, client-side web, and Android development.
Key Features:
Kotlin incorporates both object-oriented and functional programming elements, allowing developers to choose between object-oriented (OO) and functional programming (FP) styles or even combine elements of both. It provides robust support for advanced features like higher-order functions, function types, and lambdas, making it an excellent choice for those interested in exploring functional programming.
Supported Build Tools:
For JVM-based development, Kotlin seamlessly integrates with popular build tools such as Gradle, Maven, Ant, and Kobalt. Additionally, there are build tools tailored for client-side JavaScript development that can be used with Kotlin.
