About the author

Peter Spth graduated in 2002 as a physicist and soon afterward became an IT consultant, mainly for Java related projects. In 2016 he decided to concentrate on writing books on various subjects, with a primary focus on software development. With a wealth of experience in Java-related languages, the release of Kotlin for building Android Apps made him enthusiastic about writing books for Kotlin development in the Android environment.
