Companies like Google, Square, Atlassian, and Capital One are increasingly using Kotlin, the fastest-growing programming language according to GitHub.

was relatively new to mobile," Cheng told Business Insider."We embraced Kotlin pretty quickly and extensively. There were a lot of advantages. It's more condensed. It really helps with consumption and maintenance. Since our adoption, everything has been great."

With Java, software developers commonly ran into a bug called a"null pointer exception." In Java, variables can be"null" as a default, meaning it does not have any value attached to it. A"null pointer exception" is when the code references a variable, but the variable has no value when the application is running.

"If you believe in the outcome, it's not risky for this proposal," Ovechkin said."It's an investment you have to make and a learning curve."Another benefit is Kotlin's compatibility with Java, the original language that Android apps are usually written in. Essentially, developers can mix and match both languages. Since Kotlin is completely compatible with Java, developers can incrementally convert their apps.

Atlassian's Cheng also says it lowers the barrier to the software industry. Kotlin is a language that's more modern and easier to use, and it could increase the number of people who learn to code.
