What Hacker News says
2 sourcesIn my team, we are currently developing native Android app with Kotlin. At first, I wasn't sure it was going to be successful but when I looked back it was the best decision ever made to my team. Kotlin is short, concise yet powerful. Lambda, and extension are the best features. You can design your API interface in the most expressive way. It help makes communication between objects much much easier.
For Android development, it is even sweeter, who likes keep using `findViewById()`. Kotlin-Android-Extension does that automagically.
I even write my own HTTP lib for Android entirely in Kotlin. If you like to check it out, here it is (https://github.com/kittinunf/Fuel)
