https://kotlinlang.org[Kotlin] is a statically typed language that targets the JVM |
|
(and other platforms) which allows writing concise and elegant code while providing |
|
very good https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/java-interop.html[interoperability] |
|
with existing libraries written in Java. |
|
|
|
The Spring Framework provides first-class support for Kotlin and lets developers write |
|
Kotlin applications almost as if the Spring Framework was a native Kotlin framework. |
|
Most of the code samples of the reference documentation are |
|
provided in Kotlin in addition to Java. |
|
|
|
The easiest way to build a Spring application with Kotlin is to leverage Spring Boot and |
|
its https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-kotlin.html[dedicated Kotlin support]. |
|
https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-kotlin/[This comprehensive tutorial] |
|
will teach you how to build Spring Boot applications with Kotlin using https://start.spring.io/#!language=kotlin&type=gradle-project[start.spring.io]. |
