Fluent Testing with Kotlin - Miles Peele

Tests are an integral part of writing maintainable, clean code. If your tests are verbose, your code is probably also verbose. In this talk, we'll discover how to make your tests easy to read, easy to write, and easy to maintain using Kotlin's reified types combined with inline, infix and extension functions.

Kotlin + AWS Lambdas: Building an API in 10 minutes - Josh Williams

AWS Lambdas are one of the most useful tools to use when creating a backend. Allowing developers to not have to worry about the server and configurations their backend is running on, Lambdas allow you the versatility to write code in many different languages and provide many different services including providing an api; Kotlin is one of them. We will go over how to create your api with Lambdas using Kotlin and AWS Serverless.
