  1. IT’S TIME TO SWITCH TO KOTLIN FOR MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT In the mobile app development industry, Kotlin has been in the buzz as it becomes a developer first choice for building an Android app. Previously the trend was different when we talk about Android app development, the first programming language that came to our mind was ‘Java’. Undeniably, the majority of Android apps are written in Java, but developers should know that the Android app can be written in various language that can be compiled and run on Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Kotlin is one of the popular supplements of Java which was developed by JetBrains as a third- party language on February 15, 2016. After a year, in May 2017 Google announced their first- class support for Kotlin on Android programming to make coding a satisfying and efficient experience. According to the Realm Report, after Google’s I/O announcement, “the number of applications built with Kotlin has increased by 125% and its adoption rate has doubled from 7.4% to 14.7%”.

  2. These figures prove that Kotlin is receiving amazing acceptance from the developers of mobile applications. Benefits of Kotlin In Mobile App Development Here’s a couple of reasons why you should totally switch to Kotlin: Java Interoperability Kotlin is purely interoperable with Java. Developers can continue to work on their old Java projects using Kotlin. No need to change the code as Java frameworks are still available in Kotlin and all the framework mobile app developers will write in Kotlin is easily adopted by Java developers.

  3. Less code During the development cycle, times matter a lot. With Kotlin, developers can save time during the mobile app development process as it requires less code means fewer bugs to deal with. Kotlin also helps in accomplishing tasks with high speed, in turn, that can also save your significant amount of time while building a mobile application. Kotlin has a positive impact on your bottom line also as most of the IT solution provider companies calculate costs based on project hours. So, it’s perfectly natural to see Android developers get quite excited over this remarkable programming language. Android studio support Android Studio has an amazing support for Kotlin, it makes easier to configure Kotlin in projects just like opening a few menus. Once you have set up Kotlin for Android Studio, your Integrated Development Environment will seamlessly understand, compile and run Kotlin. Developers can also convert the entire Java source file into Kotlin file. Summing Up There are lots of features that are offered by Kotlin so it safe to proclaim that Kotlin will go through an accelerated period of evolution over the coming years.
