Kotlin support improvement #712

Open Hero9909 opened 3 years ago

Hero9909 commented 3 years ago

currently im testing how good kite works if it comes to Kotlin and i would say its still limited after around a week.

are there any plans to extend kite to improve kotlin completions? or how can i improve the learing speed ?

im using it from android studio and intelij ultimate.

There are some improvements in the work. Is there anything particular you think would be useful?

Hero9909 commented 3 years ago

Im working on a app with many fragments so much code is repeated, but the kite completion struggles to get the parts. often code snippets show up that wont fit or are unfinished so i would need to rework often those parts. it would be better if kite would offer a option to only suggest "full" methodes or parts.

another thing is that if i write things like foo_ex?.doo().let{it_ex-> it_ex.filter() + it_ex.filterelse() } and replace foo or ex with another words kite offers very different completions as i would expect ( sometimes if offers filter( or filterelse() , it feels like lambda expressions are much harder for kite to learn

and to get back to my question, are there options or ways to speed up learning? maybe im using kite the wrong way.
