Creating extensions using Kotlin would be greatly appreciated

Describe the desired feature

We would like to create extensions using Kotlin. App Inventor can only handle Java extensions so we want support for Kotlin extensions also

Give an example of how this feature would be used

We would like to create extensions using Kotlin...

Why doesn't the current App Inventor system address this use case?

Not everyone knows Java, but are good at Kotlin, so we want this feature extension support

Why is this feature beneficial to App Inventor's educational mission?

It will help us to make more powerful App Inventor extensions :)

Kotlin is just like Java
