Kotlin Gems: Features I Wish I Discovered Sooner
Masood Masaeli – Software Consultant @ Xebia
Many developers transitioning from Java (or other JVM-based languages) to Kotlin follow a natural progression—one that I, too, have experienced. However, there are features, syntactic sugars, and conventions that often go unnoticed.
I’ve been compiling a growing list of these overlooked aspects, and I’ve decided it’s time to share it.
How to ‘TypeClass’ in Kotlin
Jerre van Veluw – Software Engineer @ Port of Rotterdam via Flock
How to decouple the domain from your database or DTO models in a typical Kotlin application. Using objects that implement interfaces with extension functions we can model and map objects in a general way.
