[Interest] Android: use Kotlin alongside with Java?

[Assam Boudjelthia]

Hi,

You should be able to add kotlin code same way as Java code, however you need some changes to the Gradle configs. I added a template of build.gradle that can use Kotlin under https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-86894, you can use that, I used that with a simple Qt app that uses Java and kotlin, that should at some point be part of the default gradle file or documented somewhere.

Best regards,
Assam

I will also add this: Kotlin is very well-supported in Android, and in
fact has become the recommended primary language for Android
development. The Android documentation would probably be a better guide
than the Qt documentation.
