It is officially supported by Jetbrains. I don't really see it as a full-fledged language but rather an extension of Java. I'm planning on trying out on my next Android app.


In what sense don't you view it as full-fledged?


Java interop is a "first-class" citizen, even more so than say Scala.


The same can be said for Clojure, but I haven't met anyone that would claim Clojure is not a "full-fledged" language. Interop has always been one feature, of many, that languages do or don't have (e.g. C++ interop with C, or C with Assembly).


But how's that making it less fully-fledged? Actually maybe I should first ask what you mean by full-fledged :)
