Yeah but the underlying system is the Android Runtime (ARK) which is basically an (arguably) mobile optimized JVM.
Kotlin is nice because it easily compiles to other targets as well. I’m just annoyed that ARK has really fallen behind in performance to the point where even Google apps get written in C++ to save on resources.
I thought android transitioned to kotlin?
