Hopefully this is the right channel to ask my question, if not please redirect me. I heard opinions that Kotlin is way quicker to write than Java and you can pump our projects/code faster, is this true? If so, by how much (% wise)

How fast do you write Java?

It is said that kotlin shortcuts a lot of java boilerplate code... i.e. programmer efficiency

At the surface, Kotlin can be used very similarly to Java, writing the same style of OOP code but with less boilerplate. For that usage-case, you’ll get moderate improvements to programmer efficiency, but it’s not until you start adopting the more functional-programming style of programming that Kotlin offers that you’ll really start noticing dramatic improvements to code quality and programmer efficiency
