Reactive Spring Boot with Kotlin Coroutines training
This training course will let you master Kotlin’s Coroutines features and combine them with Reactive Spring Boot. By doing so, you will unleash Kotlin’s tremendous concurrency potential with Spring Boot, which gives you the best of both worlds: reactive application behavior without complexity. Based on a combination of theory, live coding, and hands-on exercises, you will get a Kotlin concurrency expert with the Spring Boot framework in no time!

What will you learn?
You will learn all the functional programming features Kotlin offers, how to use them as generic building blocks (higher-order functions) and as a means to scope your code for extra conciseness and readability.
You will learn how to use Kotlin in an idiomatic way making use of immutability, expression-oriented, and scoped constructs so that you can unleash Kotlin’s true power.
Learn how to use advanced language features like Delegates, advanced Generics, ContextReceivers and where to apply them best
Get to know how Kotlin helps you designing slick Domain Specific Languages (DSL’s) using various Kotlin features like operators, Extensions, Type-Safe builders and ContextReceivers.
The last part will be dedicated to Kotlin’s mind-rocking concurrency features Coroutines. You will get to know their benefits and how they work under the hood so that you can write and test concurrent/parallel code in a snap.
