Design and implement domain-specific languages (DSLs) in Kotlin. This book goes beyond toy examples and provides real-world insights into writing DSLs in practice.

You will learn a structured approach to DSL design, including defining goals, understanding constraints, and avoiding common pitfalls. You will explore essential Kotlin language features for DSL development, as well as the interoperability issues that arise when a Kotlin DSL needs to be called from Java code. You will also review major DSL patterns, including algebraic DSLs, builder-style DSLs, and idiomatic approaches like the Loan Pattern. Finally, the book addresses advanced topics such as modeling state transitions, creating hybrid DSLs, parsing strings, leveraging annotations, and using code generation to reduce boilerplate.
