Kotlin is a statically typed programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It was developed by JetBrains and is now an official language for Android development. Kotlin is designed to be concise, expressive, and safe. It is also interoperable with Java, which means that you can use Kotlin and Java code together in the same project.
