Hi everyone!

We’re starting the EAP Champions program and invite you to join!

🤔 Why do we need this program?
While every EAP participant is very helpful, it’s invaluable to have direct contact with people who test each release on the same project. The majority of EAP participants currently use it with hobby projects, so we lack feedback from projects with a huge codebase. To make sure that all scenarios and project types are tested with the new Kotlin version, we’re starting the EAP Champions program and invite you to join!

✔️ You can become an EAP champion if you:
• Work on a project that has the relevant attributes: 100+ module Android projects / 100+ module server-side projects with Ktor and Spring / Production projects that have KMM modules / Popular JVM/Multiplatform libraries.
• Are ready to spend a couple of hours over 2 weeks testing each new release.
• Have already reported issues to YouTrack, or understand how reporting works.
• Are excited to participate and make an invaluable contribution to Kotlin’s development.
🥇 Why is being an EAP champion worthwhile?
• It’s a great help to the Kotlin team and the community in general.
• We’ll mention you or your projects in the Kotlin documentation and release blog posts.
• For each champion who participates in the testing of 4 releases, we’ll send a special “EAP Champion Pack” – unique merch from JetBrains.
• If you encounter critical problems in your projects, Kotlin engineers will do their best to provide you with assistance in fixing them or finding a workaround.
