A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

```
class CustomApplication: Application() {

    companion object {
        private var INSTANCE: CustomApplication? = null

        @JvmStatic
        fun get(): CustomApplication = INSTANCE!!
    }

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()
        INSTANCE = this
    }
}
```

Or

```
class CustomApplication : Application() {

    companion object {
        lateinit var instance: CustomApplication
            private set
    }

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()
        instance = this
    }
}
```

Not sure if this is more appropriate for <#C0B8M7BUY|android>. Which one would you prefer for creating an Android Application class? And why?

Prefer :two: to avoid Nullable types in Kotlin world.
