Kotlin aptly addresses and overcomes several o the problems that were faced by Android developers using Java – such as verbosity of the source code and run time exceptions and many others. The good part is that it is very simple to get started with and can be introduced to existing projects too.  Developers consider it as a superior programming language that opens a whole new world of opportunities when it comes to the creation of simple code for the development of new and innovative features.

Kotlin is basically an open-source programming language for Java Virtual Machine that enables streamlining Android development more efficiently. It is very similar to Java in structure but comprises of several superior features and simple syntax as well as concepts that make it more enriching than Java.

Here’s why it is easier than core Java development

• Kotlin makes the app development process faster as it requires approximately 20% lesser coding as compared to Java. Android developers can accomplish their tasks simply, quickly and efficiently.
• IT is easy to learn and is available in easy and lean syntax which is intuitive so that developers can easily learn it. The debugging is pretty simple too.
• Interoperability with Java is another highlight and the main advantage of this language. It allows usage of Java frameworks and libraries and you can add them to your Kotlin projects without any need to change the whole project in Java.
• Kotlin is supported by NetBeans – a partner of Google. The strength of open source makes it more appealing to the app developers.
• It helps developers avoid errors using the null point exceptions. Its efficient compiler is specifically designed to auto-cast the mistakes. It also has features to add new functionalities to existing classes and many more.
