# [enterprise-kotlin-handbook][0001]

Some exercises to explore out how modern, enterprise grade **backend services**

can be written in kotlin. It's slightly opinionated, proceed at your own risk.

## Motivation

Kotlin has a strong case as [java substitute][0002] on Android/mobile scenario

but it's not exclusive to it anymore for a good time now.

This doc go as a gentle approach on how to provision projects using kotlin over

java in enterprise solutions with [spring boot][0003].

The ecosystem around the JVM spans in time over decades and the problems solved

goes beyond thousands of reusable libraries. Get access to such richness with

any imaginable stack is a big deal and deserves attention in order to save time,

health and money when starting something new or maintaining battle-tested

solutions out there.

## Before we start

Some people might have a solid background on other stacks, for example

[Frontend Javascript/Typescript][0004], to cite a popular one. Whenever handy,

some comparison will be presented.

## How this guide is structured

This is a [monorepo/multiproject][0005], which usually is a bad idea but in this

case we mainly host documentation, so offer sample projects to better explore a

subject being presented is ok.

Main docs resides in [docs](docs) folder, sample projects in [samples](samples)

folder. There are a few exercises on each them.

Start by the [docs](docs) folder.
