As a former Android developer, Kotlin has always been an interesting option for me to supplement the Java code with. Android developers don’t have the luxury of running the latest Java version and so are missing out on some of the newest features of the platform.

Many developers are now considering using Kotlin when doing regular backend Java development.

If you are one of these, we have some good insights into the platform that we would like to share with you.
My good colleague, Anders Borch from Tradeshift Frontiers, has put together a nice overview of some of the benefits of using Kotlin.

Also, make sure to take a look at the most recent features in Kotlin here.
