Inkuire – Using types as search keys in Kotlin libraries
February 10, 2021
Programmers tend to use strongly typed languages for the safety in the runtime and their own comfort while developing applications.

In this talk, we will focus on a prototype tool that lets you browse the docs using types as search keys in Kotlin.
