There must be more than 50 JVM languages (some high-profile, some implementations of existing languages, some new languages with JVM implementations), even if you are familiar with a dozen of them or so, it is likely that you will pick a new one for your next project.<\/p>\n<p>The current trend has been cast away from dynamic scripting languages for application customization towards statically-typed general-purpose languages for application development.<\/p>\n<p>While some developers are born C programmers, some have an innate connection to Lisp and others swear by Perl. Developer\u2019s predilections are not defined and language preferences vary. Java.next ideates that no particular language will dominate the Android App Development landscape because there is no single perfect language for everyone.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"1\">Rise and Fall of Java<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Java has faced an uphill battle for adoption. Being slower than compiled languages popular at that time, it used to be memory hungry and was simultaneously not suitable for then-predominant client\/server style of development.<\/p>\n<p>The grace that saved Java was its relative ease of use (via garbage collection) and Applets. And as the landscape turned dynamic, Java survived. But this question was still open-ended. With the steady growth of the world-wide-web and its applicability with Java, several server-side deployment models mitigated the ongoing cons of Java. The combination of factors included web, hardware and programming paradigm.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"2\">The Emergence of New JVM Languages<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Developers were always in need to have new tools and techniques to program the web. Server-Side Java has alleviated memory constraints. Although Java has become a dominant force in the software industry, any attempts to identify the next JVM language with a similar impact as JAVA are distant and not likely to succeed. But simultaneously we have entered a polyglot world of computer languages with an upward trend. Therefore, predictions are blurry and it is unlikely that a series of circumstances will line up well for another language.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"3\">Which programming paradigms are supported?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Java.next languages either support one or multiple paradigms (which might include object orientation, meta-programming, functional and procedural, etc.) Kotlin, Scala and Groovy are all multi-paradigm. They are both functional and object-oriented.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"4\">What is Scala?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is a hybrid object-oriented and functional language, with emphasis on functional programming preferences such as immutability and laziness.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"5\">What is Kotlin?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is an object-oriented programming language that connects object-oriented programming features like Range Expressions, Extension Function, Companion Object, and Smart Casts, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Programming languages with multi-paradigm approach offer immense power to resolve problems with the same intensity. Groovy, Scala, and Kotlin provide many more facilities, including meta-programming and functional constructs. Although they&#8217;re powerful, multi-paradigm languages require more developer discipline on large projects. These support many different abstractions that are used by developers to create different variants in libraries.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"6\">Distinguishing Kotlin vs Scala<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Slant.co recommends Kotlin above Scala for all android app development projects. While Kotlin ranks 11<sup>th<\/sup>, Scala stands 17<sup>th<\/sup> amongst the best functional programming languages to learn first. One of the reasons behind this is the support by Intellij for Kotlin. Another reason to choose Kotlin is that it works well with existing Java tools such as Eclipse, Maven, Gradle, Android Studio, etc.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"7\">Scala: Ranking and Applications<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Scala rebounded in popularity following the shipment of Java 8 (that majorly supports lambdas and stream functions). A-List startups have already shown a lot of interest making it one of the most sought after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.konstantinfo.com\/blog\/top-programming-languages\/\" target=\"_blank\">programming languages<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Companies that are making use of Scala:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>LinkedIn<\/li>\n<li>Twitter<\/li>\n<li>Foursquare<\/li>\n<li>Netflix<\/li>\n<li>Tumblr<\/li>\n<li>The Guardian<\/li>\n<li>Sony<\/li>\n<li>Airbnb<\/li>\n<li>Klout<\/li>\n<li>Apple<\/li>\n<li>Uber<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Popular Scala frameworks include Play, Akka, and Spark are also helping companies adopt Scala for web development and Big Data solutions.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span id=\"8\">Pros of Scala<\/span><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Full Support for Pattern Matching, Macros, and Higher-Kinded Types<\/li>\n<li>Write Once, Run Everywhere<\/li>\n<li>Bigger Community Support<\/li>\n<li>Operator Overloading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span id=\"9\">Cons of Scala<\/span><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Slow Compilation<\/li>\n<li>Binary Compilation Is Challenging<\/li>\n<li>Less Efficient in the Management of Null Safety<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span id=\"10\">Kotlin: Ranking and Applications<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Kotlin, which has partly succeeded Java in an object-oriented and functional paradigm, inheriting most of the basics and adding its own versatility, Stack Overflow Survey 2018 counted it as the second most loved programming languages.
