Programming, Kotlin

This course guides Java developers to adopt Kotlin with hands-on examples and migration tips. It covers Kotlin fundamentals, full JVM compatibility, practical Java interoperability and techniques to increase team productivity, plus how to compile and integrate Kotlin into existing builds.

During training you'll compare Kotlin and Java idioms, learn null-safety and concise syntax, including data classes, properties and lambdas. You'll explore smart casts, 'when' expressions, collections and string handling, and use tooling on a practical Java project example.
