What's new in Kotlin on Android, 2 years in (Google I/O'19)

[@huse8165]

The keyword "when" in Kotlin is super super super super POWERFUL

[@SHZAUR]

is switch less powerful

[@matthieulucas9059]

12:48 oooh, nice reference to a previous conference in the Kotlin Cinematic Universe

[@pranay2431]

The way he said it was working, and did it a while ago, was the best part.

[@tengun]

I can never get enough of these Google IO presentations.

[@someonlinevideos]

Really cool how he went into edit mode with JSON at 11:50. Any idea how he did that?

[@Muthuraj]

Alt + Enter

[@hadihariri]

On any string you can inject a language such as JSON. Once you do that, for JSON you get an editor by again hitting alt+enter on it.

[@mohammadrasoulfard-habibi3066]

Yeah how the hell lol

[@rgenericson5361]

Kotlin is awesome! Looking forward to more multi platform!

[@mohammadrasoulfard-habibi3066]

Ay up buddy, so should I learn kotlin over java.

[@nobytes2]

@@mohammadrasoulfard-habibi3066 I think kotlin is multi platform beta by now, check out their website.

[@zedshockblade7157]

@@mohammadrasoulfard-habibi3066 Kotlin is based on java. so I advise to learn core java before kotlin

[@BoxingHacker]

Man when will they add retrofit to jetpack. Also the json serializer helper functions are awesome

[@时轲]

so what's wrong in programing12:43

[@deconcoder]

Good presentation! The whole point of code contracts, a la DbC is that the contract is spec'ed OUTSIDE the function right? with pre/post conditions and invariants. So only people who look at the source will know what this will or will not do.

[@RinconTech]

Here we go!

[@huse8165]

Kotlin is totally better than Swift

[@bfjohnmark]

Loved kotlin..

[@eatthepi]

Is this a repost of an earlier video? What's the difference? Is it an edit? CHANGELOG please!

[@hadihariri]

It's the same video. But we had to correct the company name on my name.

[@a-yon_n]

video: new in kotlin. me: new to kotlin

[@Y2Kvids]

Madness

[@kirillprybylskyi961]

Got cringed when i saw this coroutines/rx code

[@Dragiux]

Nice to know kotlin is going the opposite direction of proper programming. Had really high hopes for it.

[@GakisStylianos]

Could you elaborate on why you think that's true? And if it is, why does Google support a product that goes further from what you think as optimal? What are your opinion on these questions?

[@erickmoya1401]

What do you mean?

[@michealandretis7243]

syntax seems kinda weird.. java for android is fine,but it's too damn verbose.

[@hdkloh]

Google: Kotlin first Developers: Flutter first, Bye-Bye Kotlin Remember Google you can not force developers to migrate to Kotlin

[@vikashparajuli]

They are making confusion

[@70ME3E]

whattt??? kotlin is the best! I haven't tried flutter tho

[@jesuscastro620]

Good statement: Flutter or Kotlin? xD.

[@Dragiux]

Or you could stick with java and stop following fads.

[@ronirusmayadi9253]

Please put the Indonesian language so that the Indonesians understood 😁

[@gregfrllo]

Roni Rusmayadi yes please

[@carlhopkinson]

Kotlin...totally unnecessary.

[@nawshadhamid]

Google can change Kotlin features and syntax anytime. But, Google can't change Java.

[@silver10188]

Agree, better if it was Swift

[@erickmoya1401]

Better Java if you mean that. We needed a better Java

[@nobytes2]

@@erickmoya1401 Java is not open source, in addition Oracle wants to get paid billions for using Java. Kotlin will replace it 100%.
