Description

Familiarize yourself with all of Kotlin's features with this in-depth guide About This Book * Get a thorough introduction to Kotlin * Learn to use Java code alongside Kotlin without any hiccups * Get a complete overview of null safety, Generics, and many more interesting features Who This Book Is For The book is for existing Java developers who want to learn more about an alternative JVM language. If you want to see what Kotlin has to offer, this book is ideal for you. What You Will Learn * Use new features to write structured and readable object-oriented code * Find out how to use lambdas and higher order functions to write clean, reusable, and simple code * Write unit tests and integrate Kotlin tests with Java code in a transitioning code base * Write real-world production code in Kotlin in the style of microservices * Leverage Kotlin's extensions to the Java collections library * Use destructuring expressions and find out how to write your own * Write code that avoids null pointer errors and see how Java-nullable code can integrate with features in a Kotlin codebase * Discover how to write functions in Kotlin, see the new features available, and extend existing libraries * Learn to write an algebraic data types and figure out when they should be used In Detail Kotlin has been making waves ever since it was open sourced by JetBrains in 2011; it has been praised by developers across the world and is already being adopted by companies. This book provides a detailed introduction to Kotlin that shows you all its features and will enable you to write Kotlin code to production. We start with the basics: get you familiar with running Kotlin code, setting up, tools, and instructions that you can use to write basic programs. Next, we cover object oriented code: functions, lambdas, and properties - all while using Kotlin's new features. Then, we move on to null safety aspects and type parameterization. We show you how to destructure expressions and even write your own. We also take you through important topics like testing, concurrency, microservices, and a whole lot more. By the end of this book you will be able to compose different services and build your own applications. Style and approach An easy to follow guide that covers the full set of features in Kotlin programming.

Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
