Writing sketches in Kotlin

Relevant sub-area for this feature?

PDE

Feature description

Would be cool if we could write sketches in Kotlin. In the dropdown options where "Java" is listed in the editor, I don't see Kotlin as an option there. This makes all the more sense considering processing itself is incorporating more and more of kotlin.

Benefits

Kotlin is so nice, would be cool to be able to write sketches in Kotlin!

Hi @parrotcar00. This is definitely part of Processing's future! We're busy migrating the sketch runner to Gradle and looking to integrate more Kotlin along the way. Tell your (Kotlin) friends ;)

In the meantime, here’s a template by @Stefterv that you can use in IntelliJ IDEA: processing4-kotlin
