Inside AS, you can use Action -> Convert File to Kotlin https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/converting-a-java-file-to-kotlin-file.html

Please don't rely on it, the code is often not idiomatic and there can be subtle differences in behavior.

[karelpeeters]

That's not what I meant, it's more that "how to develop an app in Kotlin" isn't significantly different from Java, so just follow along with a Java tutorial one.

[Giulio]

[karelpeeters]

Yeah it's definitely better, but not fundamentally different.
