A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Going thru the tutorial. Noticed it specifies an older version of Kotlin: <https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-toolchain/pull/6>

Hi! Thanks for pointing that out. It actually surfaces a different problem. This section was just meant to explain how users can configure the version of the compiler, so the exact version in the example shouldn't matter at all. That said, given that it's a "step" in a tutorial, it might be perceived as a mandatory step to go through. I think we need to improve that.

Yeah it would be interesting to know what the default is here if not specified. That would be nice to include in the tutorial.

That is true, it would be beneficial. As a side note, all defaults are available in the reference documentation (<https://kotlin-toolchain.org/latest/reference/module/>), but it is indeed not the same, and if we show how to customize the version in the tutorial, we need to talk about the default.

yeah getting this message from intellij further on in the tutorial because of this too fyi.

Yeah, I see. That is a legitimate warning :slightly_smiling_face: I think we should remove this step and add it more as a useful piece of info on the side
