How to understand JetBrains open source its Kotlin language, I believe that many inexperienced people do not know what to do, so this article summarizes the causes of the problem and solutions, through this article I hope you can solve this problem.

Recently, JetBrains announced that it will open source its Kotlin programming language, a modern programming language for Java and JavaScript platforms, which is designed to be an alternative to the Java language.

Kotlin is a new JVM-based programming language launched by JetBrains in 2010. Its main design goals are as follows:

Compatible with Java.

More secure than Java, it can statically detect common traps, such as referencing null pointers.

More concise than Java, by supporting variable type inference, higher-order functions (closures), constructors, mixins, and first-level delegates.

It is simpler than Scala, its most mature competitor.

This time JetBrains has opened snapshots and source code for the following projects under the Apache 2 license:

Kompiler:Kotlin compiler

Base Java Enhancement Library: utilities for JDK collections and other frameworks

Build tools: integrate Ant and Maven

IntelliJ IDEA plug-in: Kotlin local IDE

You can have a preliminary understanding of Kotlin through Kotlin Web Demo, which is a Web-based Kotlin code editing, running, and sharing environment.
