Introduction
Kotlin is a modern programming language developed by JetBrains and officially supported by Google for Android application development. In recent days, Google has announced Kotlin as the first priority language to develop android applications. Kotlin has many advantages over Java and speeds up development time significantly. Initially Kotlin was targeted for Android platform, but it has now become a suitable option for Web and other platforms like MacOS and Linux. Kotlin is easy to learn, as developers find it similar to other popular languages like Java, C# or Scala. It’s the fastest growing language which developers all around the world have embraced very quickly. It is recommended for every android apps developer to take Kotlin seriously because many upcoming libraries for Android SDK are targeted for Kotlin. This course gives the basic and intermediate level knowledge of Kotlin and Android apps development in a modern approach. Those who attend this course will gain a fair amount of knowledge on Kotlin and Native Android development which will help them to build any application they want to build in later stages.
