Kotlin Onboarding 2: Object-Oriented Programming
Write smarter Kotlin with structure that scales—learn OOP by building real things.
About this course
This course is the second step in your Kotlin journey, where syntax turns into structure, and code becomes something you can build on.
You’ll move beyond conditionals and functions to objects, behaviors, and architecture.
Before starting, make sure you're comfortable with Kotlin variables and data types, basic functions, and control flow (like if/else and loops), and how a simple Kotlin program is structured.
Your result: the skills to structure basic Kotlin applications using OOP principles, complete hands-on mini-projects, and a strong foundation for Android, backend, or other real-world Kotlin development.
