NewsKotlin Comes to BlueJ
Kotlin support is now available in BlueJ, one of the most established environments for teaching introductory object-oriented programming (OOP). This work is the result of a collaboration between JetBrains and the BlueJ team at King’s College London, including Professor Michael Kölling and Dr. Neil Brown, whose work has shaped programming education for decades.
For many students, programming begins in the classroom, where a teacher introduces basic concepts for the first time. Having reached more than 25 million unique learners worldwide, BlueJ is one of the most widely used environments for beginners. Its visual class diagram, object bench, and direct object interaction help students see programs as systems of objects they can create, inspect, and command.
