Many years ago, I used to think that Scala was going to be my "next Java".

Now, guess it's not Scala, by Kotlin. Why? - First class citizen for Android development. Yes, most of my works is on Android.

- Not to foreign compared to Java. In general, Java devs should be able to Kotlin in relatively short time. Not sure about Scala, which is influenced by Haskell/ML etc. At least in my circle, not many folks familiar with functional programming.

- Of course now Spring also supports Kotlin :)
