Ready to dive into modern backend development? Come join our hands-on workshop where we'll show you how to use **Kotlin** to build awesome **server-side apps**! We'll be focusing on how smoothly Kotlin works with the popular **Spring Boot** framework.

### Workshop content

We'll get our hands dirty with lots of practical examples and live coding. First up, we'll get a Kotlin and Spring Boot project running to show you just how clean and simple it can be. Then, you'll learn how to create clear and safe RESTful APIs using Kotlin's handy MVC DSL, which makes setting up routes a breeze.

A big part of our session will be getting the hang of asynchronous programming with Kotlin Coroutines. We'll show you how to handle tricky, long-running tasks and build super-responsive apps without getting tangled up in callbacks. And, of course, we have to talk about one of Kotlin's best features: its null-safety! We'll show you how it helps you wave goodbye to those annoying NullPointerExceptions for good, making your code way more reliable.

### Who is this for? (Prerequisites)

- You should know your way around Java and the Maven build tool.
- It helps to have a basic idea of what Spring Boot is all about.

### Outcomes

By the end, you'll walk away with the real-world skills and confidence to **start building your own backend services with Kotlin and Spring Boot**.
You'll be all set to write code that's cleaner, safer, and way more efficient!
