Familiarity: Java has been the primary language for Android development for many

years, so there is a large pool of developers experienced in Java.


Mature ecosystem: Java has a mature ecosystem with extensive libraries, frameworks,
and tools available for Android development.
Legacy codebase: If you have an existing codebase in Java, it may be more
convenient to continue using Java to maintain compatibility and leverage existing
code.
Kotlin:

Conciseness and readability: Kotlin is known for its concise syntax and reduced
boilerplate code, making it easier to read and write.
Null safety: Kotlin has built-in null safety features that help prevent null
pointer exceptions, leading to more robust and stable code.
Interoperability: Kotlin is fully interoperable with Java, allowing you to use
existing Java libraries and gradually migrate from Java to Kotlin.
Coroutines: Kotlin provides native support for coroutines, which simplifies
asynchronous programming and makes it easier to handle background tasks.
Overall, Kotlin has gained popularity in recent years due to its modern features
and improved developer experience. It is recommended for new projects or if you
prefer a more concise and expressive language. However, if you have a strong
background in Java or an existing Java codebase, sticking with Java may be a
reasonable choice.

Ultimately, the decision between Java and Kotlin depends on your project
requirements, team expertise, and personal preferences. Both languages can be used
to develop high-quality Android apps, so choose the one that suits your needs best.
