This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course Kotlin Essential Training: Object-Oriented and Async Code. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.
If you’re looking to get up and running with Kotlin, the powerful programming language from JetBrains, join instructor Nate Ebel, the author of Mastering Kotlin, as he shows you the ins and out of Kotlin and walks you through its unique selling points for developers—from null safety and concise syntax to Java compatibility, to full support by Google for Android development. In this second installment of the two-apart Kotlin Essential Training series, Nate covers object-oriented programming and async code in Kotlin. He covers topics like classes, interfaces, companion objects, and coroutines. Nate also provides challenges so you can test your Kotlin knowledge as you go.
This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add /tree/BRANCH_NAME to the URL to go to the branch you want to access.
The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is CHAPTER#_MOVIE#. As an example, the branch named 02_03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter.
Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters b for "beginning" and e for "end". The b branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The e branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The main branch holds the final state of the code when in the course.
When switching from one exercise files branch to the next after making changes to the files, you may get a message like this:
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout: [files]
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
