Kotlin – Ready for production
summary
Kotlin claims practical production use for years, with 30+ JetBrains developers, JVM/JavaScript and emerging native targets, and compatibility with Java 6 that lets teams mix Kotlin and Java incrementally. Demos show concise data classes replacing verbose Java beans, null-safety and interoperable property access to Java types, extension functions and lambdas with receiver enabling statically typed DSLs (TeamCity, HTML builders), a small runtime, Gradle/Kotlin DSL support and experimental coroutines for async — all working in real products.
