This is the official source repository for the Kotlin programming language, maintained by JetBrains. Kotlin is a programming language, and this repository contains the compiler that turns Kotlin code into runnable programs, along with plugins for build tools Gradle and Maven, and a plugin for the IntelliJ development environment. The topics also list support for WebAssembly (wasm), which is a format for running code in web browsers. The README does not provide further detail about the language's features, syntax, or use cases, so a complete explanation is not possible from the provided data alone.
