Talks:

Idiomatic Code Generation - Anthony Restaino

As the Kotlin ecosystem grows and more Java/Android developers begin writing more Kotlin, it is important to understand how code generation works and the power that Kotlin can bring to annotation processing. The purpose of this talk is to help people understand code generation, and will discuss how using kapt and KotlinPoet to make code generation even more powerful. It will guide the listener through the process of creating a simple annotation processor that solves a real problem. It will also touch on some of the more advanced parts of code generation, in order to provide listeners with a springboard to understand existing code generators or write their own.

Slate Kit (part 2 of 2) - Kishore Reddy

This is second of a 2 part intro to Slate Kit, by framework author Kishore Reddy. This presentation discusses the architectural design of building the backend for mobile applications and introduces Slate Kit as an open-source solution. Slate Kit (www.slatekit.com (http://www.slatekit.com/)) is a Kotlin based open-source Mobile Backend and Toolkit for building out the server-side architecture for most web and mobile applications. It serves as an open-source alternative to Parse and FireBase with the ability to be hosted anywhere. It is comprised of 3 high-level parts: Architecture components, Utilities, and Application features. These parts are very general purpose, modular and can be partially or collectively used in any application. Slate Kit currently works with MySql, Spark Java for Web APIs, and has default integration with AWS queues (SQS) and file storage (S3).

Attendance is limited. There are only 80 spots available. Be sure to RSVP!
