Description Volga 2017-07-29 14:06:12 UTC 
Description:
Kotlin is a statically-typed programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine and also can be compiled to JavaScript source code or uses the LLVM compiler infrastructure. It’s designed to be an industrial-strength object-oriented language, and a "better language" than Java, but still be fully interoperable with Java code, allowing companies to make a gradual migration from Java to Kotlin. When Kotlin codes used in LibreOffice, they should be works the same as Java, Python.

Is really needed ? If Kotlin is fully interoperable with Java then it could be possible to encapsulate Kotlin code in Java code and use it as is in a LibreOffice plugin.

Did you try?

Set status to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested
informations are provided.

Yes, Kotlin is 100% interoperable with Java.

Ok, so there is nothing more to do to use Kotlin as programming language in LibreOffice. So closing as WorksForMe.
