Dive deep into Kotlin design patterns, explore idiomatic functional programming, and master microservices with frameworks like Arrow, Ktor, and Vert.x.Key FeaturesStart from basic Kotlin syntax and go all the way to advanced topics like Coroutines and structural concurrencyLearn how to select and implement the right design pattern for your next Kotlin projectGet to grips with concurrent and reactive microservices with Ktor and Vert.xBook DescriptionFor developers who are working with design patterns in Kotlin, this practical guide offers an opportunity to put their knowledge into practice. The book covers classical and modern design patterns, and provides a hands-on approach to implementation, along with associated methodologies.The third edition stays current with Kotlin updates, spanning from version 1.6 onwards, and offers in-depth insights into topics like structured concurrency and context receivers. The book starts by introducing essential Kotlin syntax and the significance of design patterns, covering classic Creational, Structural, and Behavioral patterns. It then progresses to explore functional programming, Reactive, and Concurrent patterns, including detailed discussions on coroutines and structured concurrency. As you navigate through these advanced concepts, you'll enhance your Kotlin coding skills. The book also delves into the latest architectural trends, focusing on microservices design patterns and aiding your decision-making process when choosing between architectures.By the end of the book, you will have a solid grasp of these advanced concepts and be able to apply them in your own projects.What you will learnUtilize functional programming and coroutines with the Arrow frameworkUse classical design patterns in the Kotlin programming languageScale your applications with reactive and concurrent design patternsDiscover best practices in Kotlin and explore its new featuresApply the key principles of functional programming to KotlinFind out how to write idiomatic Kotlin code and learn which patterns to avoidHarness the power of Kotlin to design concurrent and reliable systems with easeCreate an effective microservice with Kotlin and the Ktor frameworkWho this book is forThis book is for developers who want to apply design patterns they've learned from other languages in Kotlin and build reliable, scalable, and maintainable applications. You'll need a good grasp on at least one programming language before you get started with this book. Familiarity with classical design patterns from your language of choice would be helpful, but you'll still be able to follow along if you code in other languages

Future-proof your applications with best practices and design patterns in KotlinKey FeaturesUnderstand traditional and modern design patterns to improve the design of your applicationCombine the benefits of object-oriented, functional, reactive, and concurrent programmingChoose the best microservices architecture and frameworks for your web applicationBook DescriptionThis book shows you how easy it can be to implement traditional design patterns in the modern multi-paradigm Kotlin programming language, and takes you through the new patterns and paradigms that have emerged.This second edition is updated to cover the changes introduced from Kotlin 1.2 up to 1.5 and focuses more on the idiomatic usage of coroutines, which have become a stable language feature. You'll begin by learning about the practical aspects of smarter coding in Kotlin, as well as understanding basic Kotlin syntax and the impact of design patterns on your code.The book also provides an in-depth explanation of the classical design patterns, such as Creational, Structural, and Behavioral families, before moving on to functional programming. You'll go through reactive and concurrent patterns, and finally, get to grips with coroutines and structured concurrency to write performant, extensible, and maintainable code.By the end of this Kotlin book, you'll have explored the latest trends in architecture and design patterns for microservices. You’ll also understand the tradeoffs when choosing between different architectures and make informed decisions. What you will learnImplement all the classical design patterns using the Kotlin programming languageApply reactive and concurrent design patterns to make your application more scalableDiscover best practices in Kotlin and explore its new featuresUnderstand the key principles of functional programming and learn how they apply to KotlinFind out how to write idiomatic Kotlin code and learn which patterns to avoidHarness the power of Kotlin to design concurrent and reliable systems with easeCreate an effective microservice with Kotlin and the Ktor frameworkWho this book is forThis book is for developers who want to apply design patterns they’ve learned from other languages in Kotlin and build reliable, scalable, and maintainable applications. You’ll need a good grasp on at least one programming language before you get started with this book. Java or design patterns will be particularly useful, but you’ll still be able to follow along if you code in other languages.
