Hi everyone, I’m new here. Where can I start to learn Kotlin for Android Developement? I come from Java
l
kotl.in and a "playground" Android Studio project to get started

There’s this blog, where the author has also a book and focuses on android app examples https://antonioleiva.com/kotlin/

I've also written a short series of posts on building a todo app in Kotlin, and I think coming from Java it will be beneficial - https://androidessence.com/android/how-to-build-a-todo-list-in-kotlin-part-1-new-project/

Once you installed the plugin there is always the "Code > Convert Java file to Kotlin". It's a one-to-one conversion, not ideal, but it helps a lot to learn how to express things in Kotlin.

+1 for learning by conversion, the Convert to Kotlin tool in IntelliJ/Android Studio is very powerful and an excellent way to start. That and official documentation could get you 90% of the way to fully understanding the language

nice, I will keep that in mind!
thank you all!
