Inspired by this Lobsters thread, and some of the great comments within it, I would like to ask if anybody is doing some hobby programming this weekend?

    Kotlin Multiplatform because I’m unemployed, and Kotlin is a nice language and it’s been decades since I haven’t done a mobile application (the last ones were in Java for Android and Objective-C for the iPhone).

      I haven’t used Kotlin for years but I did do a $WORK project in it once. I prefer co-routines in Kotlin to using async in Rust (which makes sense because it is a higher level language with a garbage collector). I also like how easy it is to write Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) in Kotlin.

      Good luck with the job search. Its hard out there at the moment.
