Have you seen kotlin? Its a cross between java, python and scala for the JVM (and JS - with wrinkles)

Everyone should seriously consider using Kotlin, it's here to stay.

The only thing I hate it the extra symbols. How to they justify using : val companyName: String = "JetBrains". Instead of string companyName = "Jetbrains" ?
