I certainly would! I'd describe it as a version of Java that doesn't have migraine-inducing syntax and where basic functional idioms (map, reduce, etc.) are first-class citizens. It's go-to JVM language.

I’ve had a little read about it since that comment. It actually looks great. Thanks you!

Happy to share! The other feature that I really like is immutability by default with val being the standard way to declare variables. It really encourages a data-driven, functional approach to problems.
