In "News How Mobile Development Teams Use Kotlin in 2025," José Luis González, a JetBrains-certified Kotlin Trainer, provides insights into effective Kotlin practices for mobile development teams. He emphasizes avoiding swallowing `CancellationException` in catch blocks to preserve cooperative cancellation, using Firebase Crashlytics and Sentry for monitoring app performance and stability, and employing profiling techniques like Android Studio's CPU and memory profilers, JankStats, and LeakCanary to identify performance bottlenecks. González also advocates starting with a small project to explore Kotlin Multiplatform, such as a shared data or utility layer, to demonstrate its efficacy in cross-platform development. His insights are grounded in practical application and are geared towards helping teams improve their Kotlin skills and application performance.
