Android Development with Kotlin

Abstract

Nowadays, the Android application development process is quite extensive. Over the last few years, we have seen how various tools have evolved to make our lives easier. However, one core element of the Android application development process hasn't changed much over time, Java. The Android platform adapts to newer versions of Java, but to be able to use them, we need to wait for a very long time until new Android devices reach proper market propagation. Also, developing applications in Java comes with its own set of challenges since Java is an old language with many design issues that can't be simply resolved due to backward compatibility constraints.
