Same here. On my my most recent project the client requested we use Java, since after they take over they can use devs with Java knowledge.

- firefruit 9y agoIt will take a week or two to convert experienced Java devs to Kotlin.
- wootie512 9y agoYea I agree. I like Kotlin a lot and found the transfer from Java to Kotlin fairly straightforward. Just not all clients are open to one more thing for their devs to do/learn. In the specific case for us, the devs were new to Android so they wanted to use a language they were comfortable in.
- pennaMan 9y agoIf they are new to Android how are they comfortable in Androids' take on Java? Trying to use paradigms from enterprise/server side Java in Android is going to backfire hard on all but the most trivial projects.
