What is Kotlin?
Kotlin is a free, open-source, statically typed "pragmatic" programming language that mixes object-oriented and functional programming capabilities. It was first created for the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) and Android. Interoperability, safety, clarity, and tooling support are all important factors.

Kotlin is a Better Java
Kotlin is a great choice for Android development , not only because it provides a way to interoperate with Java, but also because it can do things that Java cannot. For example, you can define properties in Kotlin without defining a getter or setter. This means less boilerplate and more readable code. Additionally, Kotlin has features that make code more concise and readable compared to Java (companion objects, scope functions).

Interoperability with Java
One of the best things about Kotlin is that it's 100% interoperable with Java. What this means is you have complete access to all existing Java frameworks, libraries, and tools and you can simply start using them for your new Kotlin projects. Like, for instance, you can use the Spring Framework in your Kotlin project—and also use your old Java code and call it from Kotlin code. This is possible because all the Java code is converted to the corresponding JVM (Java Virtual Machine) bytecode when built and then runs as usual.
