Kotlin is more than just the Android house language

In this episode of the Stack Overflow Podcast, Jeffrey Van Gogh, a director of engineering at Google and board member of the Kotlin Foundation, discusses Kotlin's evolution from an Android-specific language to a versatile, multi-platform programming language with features that make development more productive and less error-prone. The conversation explores Kotlin's key advantages, including null safety, coroutines for asynchronous programming, and its ability to interoperate seamlessly with Java while offering modern language features.
