That. Except for me Kotlin is TypeScript.

I totally see the appeal of Kotlin. For me, my day to day job is JS and TypeScript makes that a top shelf experience. It seems like the one constant in my work has always been JS and SQL for almost everything I've ever touched. Though in my dichotomy, I never actually need or use Rust. I would like to find an excuse to write a library in Rust.

I don't think kotlin is TypeScript. Kotlin adds to java some nice things like coroutines, it is not only null safetly, functional programming and some sintax sugar. And also compiles to javascript and in the future to native.
