Building a Multiplatform Kotlin Library
with Russell Wolf
Multiplatform Kotlin is still in its early stages, which makes it an exciting time to contribute to the open source ecosystem around it. We'll talk through how to configure a library that can be consumed from Kotlin common code and exposed to both Android and iOS apps, using a simple Settings library as an example.
Kotlin Gotchas: A.k.a My Adventures in Kotlinland (and how testing got me through)
with Tom Husson
When we started working with Kotlin we realized that the language didn’t work exactly how we expected. This talk explores some of those issues and how writing unit tests helped us find them.

What is this Meetup about?
Kotlin Office Hours is a monthly meetup where software developers of all backgrounds who want to learn Kotlin or improve their Kotlin skills can come, share their experiences and get help with their Kotlin projects.
Kotlin is an open-source programming language developed by JetBrains which has seen an upswell of interest since it's 1.0 release in 2016. It now supports not only JVM but JavaScript and LLVM architectures as well. We will have experts speaking about Kotlin and its use in these various architectures, showing their knowledge and the projects that they are working on.
Who is it for?
This meetup is for both beginners and more advanced Kotlin developers who are interested in learning more about Kotlin and in how other developers are using it in their work and projects. Any developer with an interest in Kotlin is encouraged to join this meetup.
