A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Can you please specify when 1 is more preferable?

imho the first example is the flashier, “hey look it’s :kotlin:” approach, which I think has a use in some cases

perhaps not exactly as shown, I’d personally rework it a bit to be a little less constrived

the second is literally just a function call with keyword arguments, you could mistake it for python if you accidentally glossed over the `listOf` call

I prefer custom DSL builders mostly in tests but in production code I did not need it

DSLs are languages. It mean you have to load a new parser in your head to read it. Unless it read very naturally (aka: Domain Specific), it's harder to understand.

I removed the back ticks in the 3rd image because my syntax highlighter doesn’s support those yet. (it’s on my todo though)
