I am sorry to disappoint you. I wrote a huge app in Java and in Kotlin. Months of develoments. xCode still years ahead of AS in every sense. Inheriting another company IDE is philosophically wrong, but that's the way Android and Google work. Maybe I love details too much.

So, given that IntelliJ IDEA has been in development for 14 years and XCode for 11, when would you expect Google to release a high-quality IDE if they started from scratch today?
