Setting up IntelliJ IDEA & Kotlin on your computer
Today, in this tutorial, I will help you to get started with developing software (computer programming) on your computer at home.
For doing so, I can only recommend the free development environment IntelliJ IDEA by JetBrains, which myself and many other developers use daily. It is free to use and a great tool for beginners and professionals alike.
As the programming language of choice, I selected Kotlin, which I will introduce to you briefly. I am convinced that Kotlin is a great first programming language to get started.
Make sure to watch my video course here on YouTube where I teach you how to start programming and how to use Kotlin (two separate courses).
