Kotlin is a statically typed programming language that runs on the Java virtual machine and also can be compiled to JavaScript source code or use the LLVM compiler infrastructure.

Kotlin is a fully supported programming language by Google on the Android, and is directly included in the Android Studio 3.0 IDE package as an alternative to the standard Java compiler.

Kotlin is available as snap, the universal Linux package format, so it can be easily installed via following steps in Ubuntu.

Open terminal via Ctrl+Alt+T or by searching for ‘terminal’ from app launcher. When it opens, run command:

sudo apt-get install snapd snapd-xdg-open

Input your password (no visual feedback while typing due to security reason) when it prompts and hit Enter.
