Hello everyone! I am Akash Veerappan, and I am a freshman CS major at Georgia Institute of Technology. I have been developing for the Android platform for over the last three years now. I am super excited to be a part of a new community, so thank you for welcoming me here! I believe that it is time for me to make the switch from Java to Kotlin, but this time I also want to help Kotlin evolve and become the next big thing by contributing to the KotlinLang project. I am still very new to most of these things, but I am super excited about meaningfully contributing to the developers' community. I will definitely reach out once I am ready to get goin.g Thank you so much!
