We all know about the fact that Java is being considered to be the best possible language for Android application development until Kotlin comes in...

Thank you for sharing such an amazing post with us. I was really confused about that should I learn Kotlin or not. But after reading your blog I guess I should do Kotlin Training in Noida.
I love read articles in english, it´s very good for learn. Learn about the theme and english..
I suffered making library in kotlin language, for app host made on Java, the integration wasn't easy. Later another teammate made migration to java. The kotlin language is not permitted stack for company.
Good article.
Question, why Kotlin and why not GO or stick to Java (May be will come a day when Java picks up against Kotlin?)
Kotlin is Java compatible and can leverage JVMs. Kotlin interworks with Java, provides incremental change of code and superior type system, and provides the easy Migration path from Java with backward compatibility. With features like more declarative, less code, mixed language database makes Kotlin more expressive than Java. Kotlin is more stable and congruous development option for Android Studio. There might be chances that Kotlin and Java coexist without one outweighing the other. There are definite limitations within Java that impede Android API design. Kotlin is inherently lightweight, clean and far less verbose, especially in terms of writing callbacks, data classes, and getters/setters. Kotlin is specifically designed to improve existing Java models by offering solutions to API design deficiencies, inbuilt null safety, interoperability, etc.
I dont completely agree with the answer but yes, there are certain advantages of Kotlin over Java. One is for sure Android Development. But if you check Java 17, data classes are part of Java now (Records in case of Java).
I mean, interoperability sure is a thing, but mixing these two would leave you team divided. I am PRO Java, but I like Kotlin as well. I wont say one is better than other, but yes they have their use cases in their own world.
I hoping Java will catchup hopefull in Java 23 or so ;)
yes both have thier use cases.
even if Java upgrades, it is not a harm in learning Kotlin, as it is compatible with JVMs.
"Kotlin overcomes many pitfalls of Java "
Should have mentioned few of them at least...
Jython vs Kotlin.
None of the reasons listed are compelling enough to jump from whatever platform/programming language you had going on in your organization to Kotlin.
Shifting from existing environment is crucial, maybe i have missed many points but kotlin can be preferred over others. Also, if you are starting afresh, it can be a good option to start.
I am keeping a distance until it's not just a "better Java"
