Let’s talk about Kotlin!

By Christina Kraus15. March 2018

Yeah! We are part of the Talking Kotlin podcast! In mid december we had a nice little recording session, where two of our meshPeople talked about their experiences during our Kotlin adoption in the meshcloud backend.

While we started with a plain Java Spring Boot application, we have reached about 70% Kotlin code by now. Stefan already highlighted the greatest Kotlin benefits in one of his previous blogposts.
In the podcast Johannes and Stefan talk in detail about their experiences and challenges during the adoption to Kotlin. In this context they also talk about the advantages and requirements of Spring Boot and as an example for this about an implementation of a simple Spring Boot application in Java vs. Kotlin.

We hope you enjoy it just as much as we did. Do you have any questions or comments? Feel free to leave a comment.
