Kotlin by Example: Hello world
|
Our first program will print the classic "hello world" message. Here's the full source code. |
fun main() {
println("Hello world!")
}
|
|
As you can see, Kotlin is very concise; it does not require a lot of boilerplate. |
|
First, we have to compile the program with |
$ kotlinc main.kt -include-runtime -d main.jar
|
|
The compiler will generate a |
$ ls
main.kt Main.jar
|
|
The resulting |
$ java -jar Main.jar
Hello, world!
