Kotlin Development Services We Provide

Custom Kotlin Android App Development

Kotlin has been an official language for Android mobile app development since 2017. Fully interoperable with Java, Kotlin is an efficient, modern language for building robust mobile apps.

Our developers use tools like Android Studio, Gradle, and Kotlin Coroutines with Kotlin to streamline Android app development and enhance app quality.

Cross-Platform App Development

Deliver a native-like user experience across platforms. With Kotlin, you'll speed up development by writing common code once and sharing it across iOS and Android platforms.

We use Kotlin Multiplatform, a feature of the language that enables us to build cross-platform apps by sharing code among platforms. Thanks to these and other tools, such as Kotlin/Native and Ktor, we create apps fast without sacrificing performance or user satisfaction.

Web App Development

Modern web development—simplified. Kotlin is a versatile language well-suited for interactive web apps, e-commerce platforms, CMSs, RESTful web services, APIs, and more.

We apply Kotlin to front-end, back-end, and full-stack web development. Frameworks, libraries, and tools like Kotlin/JVN and Kotlin/JS help us ensure consistency between the front and back end and efficiency.

Android Apps Migration Services

Kotlin benefits from the maturity of the Java ecosystem while offering modern enhancements to development. By migrating Android apps from Java to Kotlin, you'll enjoy improved syntax and better safety.

We perform migrations from Java to Kotlin, and all code runs seamlessly on the Java Virtual Machine. Android Studio's Java to Kotlin Converter provides a starting point for our developers to facilitate a smooth migration process. 

Kotlin App QA/Testing

Security, performance, functionality, and user experience are all critical factors that contribute to the quality and success of any app. 

Our QA engineers ensure the reliability of Kotlin apps by performing comprehensive automated and manual testing. We leverage frameworks, libraries, and tools like JUnit, MockK, and Espresso to streamline everything from unit testing to end-to-end testing.
