Presentation
Kotlin is an object-oriented and functional programming language created by JetBrains in 2011. It has become a reference for professional Android application developers. Many companies have adopted this lightweight, continually evolving language.
This course is designed for developers who want to learn Kotlin. It begins with an overview of the language's features and tools, helping you get started confidently. You will then write your first program before progressing to object-oriented code.
Finally, you will explore Kotlin's built-in safety features, null handling, destructuring and unit testing. By the end, you will be able to create Android applications or services using the latest version of Kotlin.
