RE: goodbye findViewById! Hello Kotlin!

in #kotlin6 years ago

I ve got a little java background as amateur and I discovered Kotlin a year ago. It's not a revolution, but I think it brings a little freshness compared to java. It's a pity that it is mostly used for android and almost not for the backend.

Sort:  

in the backend you can just use it...
there are maven and gradle plugins, afaik
I just mixed it in android, too - works smooth!

What do you mean by "just use it" ?
I used for backend but the community is much bigger for android (so tuto, ... also).

oh just found this: https://www.meetup.com/de-DE/Kotlin-User-Group-Munich/events/253612919/#
a meetup in Munich, where they talk about Kotlin for the backend - I will go there and tell, what I learned

Cool, I will wait your feedback.

yeah, tutorials... I mean, you can mix java and kotlin
write in whatever you want ... I think, as soon as you have enough experience, you can always use one for the other.
Just copy/paste from stackoverflow won't work that smooth :)
