You don't need Redux for the majority of the apps.
> Nor has he moved beyond a Java 6 mindset considering the things he complains about in terms of modularity, verbosity and even strict type checking.
There's a reason people created Kotlin, there's clearly shortcomings in the Java language which did not move fast enough.

Kotlin was created mainly because IntellJ couldn't move on from Java 6. It's a huge improvement, but you've just used the same type of mindset stuck at Java 6 that's being criticised.
- foepys 8y agoWasn't Kotlin introduced because Android was still stuck in Java 6? IntelliJ is running on JRE9 (a more or less LTE version they package with their installer) currently, afaik, while Android supports Java 7 and only some Java 8 features.
- shemnon42 8y agoKotlin being used by Android was very much after the fact. In fact the first few public releases had a bug that made it unusable on Android.
