Absolutely agree. Have more fun! 😃

One comment. I think it is better to use Kotlin as long as we could if we decided using Kotlin. I mean, a hybrid of Kotlin and Java will look just ugly and, to have more fun, I feel like I'd like to try that all-Kotlin project.

How do you guys think about it? Besides, I am concerning about all the libraries provide Kotlin version or not.

Uh, just remembered Kotlin 1.0 and DataBinding don't work well together now... 😢

Yes, I guess Taro=san recommended kotterknife.

And, PermissionsDispatcher doesn't work well neither because it uses Kotlin for processor module... 😿

from droidkaigi2016.

Hmm. What do you mean? You mean if we are using PermissionDispatcher, just a piece of Kotlin code in the app doesn't work? I suppose after the code is generated, it doesn't matter whether the app is in Java or Kotlin.

Ah sorry! If we are gonna remove DataBinding, everything is fine 🎅

from droidkaigi2016.

I see. Thank you for your clarification. 🙆‍♀️

I wanted to use Kotlin somewhere to get to know its pros and cons before introducing Kotlin in production 🚀
