    I’m not a huge fan of Kotlin. Overall it’s fine, but in my opinion it tries to do too many cool things. It feels like a playground for language authors.

      My view on it as an Android dev: it’s a powerful language that has stripped back all the boilerplate and crustiness of Java into concise and expressive functional programming.

      I dislike how much I write to say very little in Java.

      It does mean that there is a lot more of a learning curve to Kotlin.
