Our two speakers this month are Kenny Adorisio and Jinn Kim. Kenny will share his experiences building a Kotlin app at Starry, including useful tips about what things have worked for them. Jinn will speak to us about using Kotlin for data science, and the libraries and tools that exist for using Kotlin to process large data sets.
Further, thanks to support from Jetbrains, we'll be raffling off a one-year license to a Jetbrains IDE of your choice. Always wanted to try out Intellij IDEA Ultimate? Or maybe you hope to play with the Kotlin Native support in CLion? Now's your chance!
