kotlinlang #kotlinconf

The first KotlinConf is really awesome and thanks for @hhariri great work. Can’t make promise whether I can attend next year flying from Australia to San Francisco, but I will definitely come back again in the future 🙂

Thank you for great conference! It was definitely the best venue I've seen 👍 (ignoring wifi issues) Hopefully, next year it'll be somewhere in Europe 🙂

Slides in the @mikehearn’s presentation seem to be out of sync with the video (slides are too late). Can that be fixed?

Hi, I just wanted to congratulate the KotlinConf team for doing a great job at recording the talks. The speakers are properly visible, all the time, and the slides are too, and are big enough to be easily readable. Thanks!

@rrva If you haven’t done serverless before, it’s great for even worker processes early on

Hi, will Tor Norbye slides from its talk "Kotlin Static Analysis with Android Lint" ever become public?

Yesterday I was playing with Lint + Kotlin and thought about rewatching Tor Noybe's talk (

). I missed the slides, and googling I found them (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Sr-6E3Tk1lBguUob0GigqSEsfN-04qS56Whj0UEr0AE/edit#slide=id.p3). Would it be possible to add them to the talks page (https://www.kotlinconf.com/talks/)?

I didn’t get the impression they were waiting for a correct guess, just that the first correct guess would get a free ticket when they announce it. Maybe I’m wrong though and all the guesses are off.

@hhariri When are you gonna open the KotlinConf tickets buying ?

On the website you can still see all the abstracts https://www.kotlinconf.com/talks/

Hi kotlinconf organisers… is it possible to create a session with more than one presenter, and allow either presenter to edit the session details?

Is there a conference hotel this year? Similar to Hilton San Francisco financial district last year?

amsterdam in general is a small city. Wherever you stay you would be able to get to the venue in at most 30 min by public transportation, and if you stay in the 9 canal area it’s at a most a 15minute walk

Any tips on how can we submit a joint CfP? Looks like only 1 speaker can be added per CfP form

may I ask what is the regular price going to be after early bird tickets are gone?

Feeling gutted having missed the opportunity to book a seat for the Android workshop when I bought the early bird ticket. 😞 Anyone here can help me with the purchase of Android workshop ticket, please?

Hey guys, where are you planning to sleep in Amsterdam during the kotlinconf this year?

Odd question but what are the kotlin conference plans for 2019? I'd like to volunteer Chicago and would help coordinate

I'm about to submit some talks, and I'm wondering what should I do if I have multiple title ideas for the same talk with the same description? Submit one talk per title idea, or write the other title ideas in the notes?

Hello. I've seen at few conferences slots dedicated to lightning talks (i.e. a 5 minute talk on any topic by anyone attending the conference). It would be great to have lightning talks at kotlinconf because they are usually a lot of fun and create a sense of community.

We had a JVM Meetup Group in Leeds, UK last night with 8 lightning talks by some great speakers. Given the fact that this meetup group covers all JVM languages it was surprising & pleasing that 4 of the 8 speakers were using Kotlin & 3 of them were using it for server-side dev. Time to catch the Kotlin wave 🏄

@andyb cool..personally, i would like to see a little bit more adoption for kotlin on server side. I really had hard time pushing kotlin for developing backend apps at my company. All kotlin discussions at my company are happening around android app dev.

I think it is coming. We have a couple of large companies who are adopting it as their language of choice for server-side dev. The work that the guys at Pivotal have done it integrate Spring & Kotlin is v impressive (thanks @sdeleuze et al). A lot of the code patterns look v functional, using

when

conditions instead of

if ... else ...

& coupled with #arrow as well means that it's similar to scala but with better Java inter-op and a shorter learning curve.

I know that they have submitted at least 1 talk to #kotlinconf so hope that gets accepted to spread the word.

If there was a "give a 5 minute demo of your server-side Kotlin application" talk, I would attend and demo.

I have got a longer presentation which I gave a while back but it's not a lightening talk: https://gitpitch.com/AndyBowes/KotlinServicesPresentation
