Clients ServedOur Kotlin Expertise
Kotlin is a statically typed language for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and JavaScript that can be used to build a diverse range of Android mobile apps. JetBrains (the company behind the IntelliJ IDE) developed it as an open-source programming language that is now widely used to develop Android apps, alongside Java. In addition to offering many of the attributes familiar to Java developers, Kotlin app development is all about Object-Oriented Programming. Businesses need a committed technological partner in these competitive times, to handhold them through the Android software life-cycles, debugging, and CI/CD.
This is where HourlyDeveloper can be of critical assistance. HourlyDeveloper’s experienced engineers leverage Kotlin’s numerous benefits, which carry forward Java’s legacy as the now-de facto Android programming language. Additionally, at HourlyDeveloper we orchestrate complex application programming logic with Kotlin's sophisticated function implementation and Functional Programming perks. This is because Kotlin offers syntactic advantages that permit the development of programs with lesser coding in comparison to contemporary or older languages.
Kotlin is useful as a general-purpose programming language since its interoperability with other languages renders the easy creation of new features, platform support extensions, and legacy Java-based Android app migrations. At HourlyDeveloper, we rely on Kotlin to develop complex programs with high-order functions. We also dispense a number of Kotlin-oriented services for business enterprises.
We can help develop any kind of custom Android application using Kotlin. Since it has become the default language for native Android development, Kotlin has espoused numerous plugins and library extensions that facilitate Android app development. We can leverage these for enterprise-scale as well as startup-scale, custom app development requirements.
Kotlin frameworks like Ktor, Micronaut, Javelin, etc. are extremely useful for developing server-side applications. Our developers rely on its type-safe builders and delegated properties to build powerful abstractions. Kotlin supports co-routines that allow it to scale and support an incremental number of users. We strongly recommend Kotlin web development for server-side scripting, all the more, as it is interoperable with any Java-based framework.
HourlyDeveloper’s UI/UX designers work hand-in-hand with Kotlin coders to create material components for Android app development. We help you improve your native Android app performance by improving the UI data flows. We flesh out bug-free renditions of these front-end components through our deft use of Google’s material structure, layout, and design science knowledge.
HourlyDeveloper’s code developers can assist with the migration of your Java programs to the Kotlin language if you wish to reap the benefits of the contemporary default Android programming language. Kotlin’s. Migrating to Kotlin has outright helped us make code readability more hassle-free for older codebases written for legacy apps. Migrating to Kotlin also allowed us to optimize client apps with new features for newly emerging Android devices.
Kotlin is equally deft at programming assistance, be it for automated tests or manual tests. It is immensely easy for HourlyDeveloper’s testers to familiarize themselves with new Kotlin codebases, and design custom test cases. We provide functional testing to ensure your app is performing exactly as expected. We conduct performance tests to improve the app's efficiency.
HourlyDevelopper can render anything from basic CI/CD support for your Kotlin applications to full-fledged app codebase optimization. Our Agile Kotlin app development practices ensure that your app continues to dispense service to Android users using a singular codebase, without any type of disruption. We can assist with the accessibility and compatibility code optimizations for your Kotlin app in-prior to deployments, too.

The Kotlin code reads very similarly to Java code, with some minor syntactic differences. Its conciseness due to data classes, smart casts, type interfaces, etc. makes it the ideal successor to an Android programming language.
Kotlin allows us to declare local functions as member functions or extension functions. We can even choose to declare functions outside of classes. Hence, despite being an OOP language, Kotlin is more liberal about method declarations, which reduces class size bloat.
The Kotlin compiler facilitates an LLVM technology that compiles code sources as standalone binaries for various supported platforms. It helps detect compile-time errors ahead of runtime, thanks to a ‘fail-fast’ approach.
The Kotlin runtime class library encapsulates the JVM, JavaScript, and native binary compilers so that when the developer compiles the code, it is compiled in Dex bytecode format or Dalvik bytecode first. This allows Kotlin to extend legacy apps as well as newly coded ones.
Kotlin boasts of the ‘throwable’ class library that facilitates every exception required by the developer under the most common programming circumstances. This allows our developers to avoid error-prone practices like creating in-built null references under checked exceptions.
Kotlin improves memory management using the Concurrent Mark-Sweep algorithm, which facilitates automated memory management and cyclic garbage collection, using an automated reference counter.
Kotlin is among the top three languages to which most businesses plan to migrate their apps to. We can fast-track your requirements from the ideation stage to deployment in no time.
Hourlydeveloper’s Kotlin app development services are available to businesses at a competitive price. They are affordable for both startups and enterprise-scale businesses w.r.t. to their scope of requirements.
HourlyDeveloper has certified junior and advanced Kotlin app development specialists on its roster. We can also outsource dedicated senior Kotlin engineers and project managers based on your requirement.
Our superlative knowledge of the best practices and tooling for Kotlin app development ensures that your deliverables are handed over ahead of time so that they can be well-tested before deployment.
