Check Kotlin, it's official and under an Apache 2.0 license

Great article (last May) with reasons why Kotlin is a good choice + code examples; https://medium.com/@magnus.chatt/why-you-should-totally-switch-to-kotlin-c7bbde9e10d5

Since then, Google made Kotlin the official language for Android.

Hi all,

I never understood tablet and phone apps market. But, through recent
exposure at work, my interest has gone up a notch.

If I want to develop some app for iPad and iPhone, then I would start
learning Swift. It's new, and there may be opportunity for apps and
jobs for early adopters.

What do I learn, if I want to develop Android apps? Can I use C, and
more importantly, is there C SDK for Android?
