Kotlin for Java Developers
Use your Java skills to learn Kotlin fast. Enhance career prospects and master Kotlin, including Java interoperability
Are you a Java developer wondering if you need to learn Kotlin?
Maybe you are an experienced Java developer who wants to learn Kotlin quickly, to be prepared for future project work.
Perhaps instead, you’re an Android app developer who knows Java well, but you want to be able to move forward with Kotlin for new Android development work.
Well, with Google’s recent focus on Kotlin for Android app development, this language has been launched into the mainstream, and you can be sure you will be seeing a lot more about it. It’s also highly likely that you will be working with Kotlin in your Java projects in the near future.
Because Kotlin works anywhere Java works, and can even be called from Java code (and vice-versa), this brings with it a massive opportunity for Java developers. Being able to work with both Java and Kotlin is going to give you a massive advantage over other programmers.
This course was designed to teach Java developers how to use Kotlin in the shortest possible time.
Sarah Ettritch, your course instructor, is an experienced Java and Kotlin developer, with many years of software development experience. She is uniquely qualified to teach you how to use this powerful and exciting language.
While you won’t learn Android app development in this course, you will learn Kotlin, and also the key differences between Kotlin and Java.
There is an entire section dedicated to Java interoperability, which is vital for all Java developers to learn.
In addition, the Kotlin syntax is explored in detail.
Over sixteen hours of videos are included in the course, making it one of the most comprehensive courses on the language.
Now is the perfect time for you to learn Kotlin, while it’s relatively new. It has been around for a while, but only now is it being thrust into the limelight.
It’s absolutely vital for Java developers to learn Kotlin to maximize future career opportunities. Objective-C developers who failed to transition to Swift, or were too slow doing so, were left behind. Don’t make the same mistake they did!
If you are ready to greatly increase your career prospects by adding Kotlin experience to your skills and knowledge, then sign up for the course today.

I like how the course have been structured, it start with the basics until the advance topics. So that the students won't be overwhelm by a sudden advance topic, that need prior basic knowledge. Also the course is design to let the students code along with the instructor. It's very nice rather than we only listen without any hands-on. Overall this course is perfect for me. I hope to see more topics of Kotlin being cover in the future!

Auf Deutsch oder zumindest mit deutschen Untertiteln wäre er sehr gut!

The only I would complain about is the age of the software being in the displays and the change in projects between Lesson 47 and 48.

The concepts are well explained and the approach is exactly what I was hoping for as a Java dev who uses a bit of Kotlin on a daily basis but didn't quite get some of the details until now.

I didn't know anything about Kotlin but I wanted a course that shows how Kotlin can be written with respect to Java. By the end of the course, now I feel I am more confident than before when reading some Kotlin code to understand what is going on.

Great instructor, straight to the point, not overcomplicated but not shallow - good overview course to cover the basics. Introduction video with emphasis to on updates is deliberately misleading - looks like it's not updated since 2017 at all. So it has few major bits like coroutines, delegates, etc. missing but I was surprised that majority of content was still relevant.
