Kotlin, the JetBrains-developed, statically typed language for JVM, Android, and web development, is due for a compiler rewrite, multiplatform mobile improvements, and a Kotlin-to-WebAssembly compiler back end, according to a public roadmap for the platform.
Unveiled October 5, the roadmap covers priorities for the language, which received strategic boost in 2017 when Google backed it for building Android mobile apps, alongside Java and C++.
