Kodee’s Kotlin Roundup: Too Many News to Keep Quiet About

Congrats to all GSoC 2025 participants! Thank you to our contributors and mentors from the Kotlin Foundation member companies and other great partners supporting open-source – Google, Gradle, Uber, Netflix, and JetBrains – and to everyone who reviewed issues, gave feedback, and merged PRs. This year’s projects have made a real impact on the Kotlin ecosystem and the contributions are already being integrated, used, and appreciated.

After a short break, Kodee’s here to share the latest Kotlin highlights, releases, and stories from September and October.

This year’s Kotlin Multiplatform Contest for students and recent graduates is open. Build a project using KMP, and it could take you to KotlinConf 2026 in Munich, Germany! Join the contest!
