Probably everyone will try to hide your comment but that's the truth, there hasn't been a worse ecosystem than Android, learning the Android SDK it's so painful that even if they choose a decent language like Python to support it won't change the fact that the APIs would still be called in the same way, just look at the examples, same just sugar-coated flavor: https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-examples/blob/master/gra... vs https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-examples/blob/master/gra...
In Learn Kotlin in Y Minutes
Thank you for the reminder, I'd looked at that, and forgot while figuring out why the "android sdk" skeleton didn't work (see note above about manually patching the build-file). At least now I should be able to get a proper java skeleton, fix the build, add support for kotlin. Only missing piece would be a supported "pure" kotlin Android project/skeleton generator. At some point I also looked at the Android example at the bottom of that page: https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-examples/tree/master/gra... -- that is also IDE centric, and hasn't been touched in a while. Which doesn't leave me very confident that it's been tested with Android 5.1 and/or 6 alpha. I suppose I'll just have to push out a "howistart"-article if/when I figure out a process that is both easy and repeatable, and hope someone will help with filing bugs as it inevita
