Kotlin – The Preferred Programming for Developers

Now days, people are very much become dependable on machines. The most common machine among people is computer and mobiles. To use good programming language in these machines is very much compulsory and Kotlin is one of the most preferred programming languages for developers.

Kotlin is very unique programming language that can be helpful for building modern multi platform applications. In reality, this language is used to develop application for native environment, browser, java Virtual Machine in fact for Android operating system also.

Java was used as primarily language for Android app development but Kotlin replaced java when it came to existence. There is no denying that java is one of the best choices of development as several Java Virtual Machines have impressed the developers but Kotlin is that programming language which is leading in the race where several other programming language also participating.

Why `Kotlin` should be very developer’s Choice?

The developers who are now using Kotlin rather than java can have the perfect answer of this question. They can easily say that Kotlin is better than java in many ways. The companies who want to make new and unique applications are now using Kotlin programming only. This programming language is easy to understand and have realistic nature which is totally satisfying the developers and thus become their best choice. Further features of Kotlin are there in this article that will explain why Kotlin is best programming language for developers.

Interoperability

The best advantage of Kotlin programming language is that it is 100% Interoperable with java which means that developers can keep on working on their java based projects with Kotlin. This programming language is very unique and very flexible as it allows developers to use any kind of framework while writing.

Familiar Syntax

Kotlin is not so hard language to understand for common person also. Although it is not so different from java but it has many good features that java is not containing. It is very much comfortable and not wired to any developer to use Kotlin.

Less Coding

Every programming language is different in its own manner but when Kotlin is compared with java, Kotlin is that programming language which needs less lines of coding to execute the same function. If we take a rough estimation then Kotlin needs almost 20% less coding than java.

Learning is Easy

Programmers do not want to waste their lot of time in understanding and learning new programming language and Kotlin provides them the same facility as this language is easy to learn. This language is easy to learn because of another reason that is, this language is very much same as java language. This language has gentle curve of learning and can be easily learn in few hours. The code of  this programming language is very much readable which saves lot of time of developers while making any new application.

Safety

Safety is the most important thing which strikes in the mind of developers while using any kind of programming language and Kotlin is very much safe to use. It has some very good safety measures. Developers can avoid errors of NullPointExceptions by using Kotlin. This programming language complier auto casts mistakes also. By using this language, developers need not to take any kind of stress of operating on nullable types.

Free to use

If you talk about to buy any new thing, you don’t want to spend extra on that. If you want to use this programming language you don’t need to spend extra money as this is an open source language and developers can easily start it by using Java-to-Kotlin converter device that converts existing java files to Kotlin. This device does not take much time to convert the complex code into simpler one also. This tool is easily available also.

Tool- friendly

One of the major reason that Kotlin becomes as most preferred programming language among all developers across the world is that it is tool friendly which means that they (developers) can select any java based integrated environment (IDE) or build with any command line. The nature of this programming language is very attractive and can be easily start without any additional efforts.

Power of Open source

This programming language always been an Open Source project and you can easily put Kotlin in a non-profit foundation. The power of open source helps to create a strong ecosystem and this programming language is not limited to one company only. It encourages the open developer ecosystem while growing the Android platform.

What happened to other languages?

Now days, Android operating system uses Kotlin as their Official language. Though, existing language are also being stronger with the latest versions of Android and Android Studio. For example, Android O can be used for Java 8 libraries. There are lots of improving in C++ language such as enhancing in performance of profiling tools and APK debugging tools to provide a new and fantastic experience.

The answer of this question is absolutely YES. Android Studio is built on Intellij IDEA, an IDE built by JetBrains, actually this is the same company behind the Kotlin. The team of JetBrains made the Kotlin in that manner that can work with Intellij IDEA easily. If you talk about android studio 3.0, tooling support for Kotlin is already bundled into Android Studio. The main target of this programming language is to available on multiple platforms and also support for other IDEs also continues as before.

Conclusion

Kotlin is a most preferred programming language for developers which is developed by JetBrains that comes with high in fact top rated Android Studio Support. FuGenX Technologies, one of the most popular and leading Mobile app Development Company thinks and also believes that this (Kotlin) programming language will surely take the apps of Android to much greater height. It is very much easy to use, learning curve is not too hard, safe to use.

If you want to have new application with unique style, you should use “KOTLIN”.
