Kotlin is super nice. As a former C# dev who went into Android, I was really dissatisfied with Java, and Kotlin was my rescue. I had to write some C# recently, and I have to admit Kotlin does feel nicer. (Admittedly it is still lacking some good stuff in comparison, eg. _yield return_).

- V-2 9y agoIt would seem so, but coroutines are still "experimental". I do hope it will catch up.
- skc 9y agoI wouldn't say Kotlin feels nicer in my opinion, they are both very expressive languages these days. What I like about them both is that you can very often intuit how something is likely to work. Kotlin + Anko makes Android development much less painful indeed.
