How Meta ported million Lines of Android code from Java to Kotlin
Posted on December 31, 2024, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
The Meta Java project is an open-source effort to create a new, more efficient, and modern compiler for the Java language. One of its key goals is to make Kotlin, which is widely used in Android app development, compatible with the Meta Java platform. This means that developers can write Kotlin code that targets the Meta Java virtual machine (VM) and run on it, rather than relying on the traditional Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The goal is to provide a more efficient and secure way to develop high-performance applications. By Sergio De Simone.
