Kotlin is a statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference. It is widely used to develop Android applications. Kotlin is designed to interoperate fully with Java, and the JVM version of its standard library depends on the Java Class Library, but type inference allows its syntax to be more concise.

Why do teams adopt Kotlin?

• Increased productivity

With less boilerplate code to maintain, Kotlin allows developers to focus on expressing ideas

• Better app quality

Among the top 1,000 apps on Google Play, those that use Kotlin have 20% fewer crashes

• Happier developers

Android developers report being happier with Kotlin. Satisfaction using Kotlin is 25 points higher than it is for other languages.

Why Kotlin is used in Android?

Kotlin is an Android-compatible language that is concise, expressive, and designed to be type- and null-safe. It works with the Java language seamlessly, so it makes it easy for developers who love the Java language to keep using it but also incrementally add Kotlin code and leverage Kotlin libraries
