How to start Android programming?

[hack3rcon]

Hello,
I am a newbie and want to start android programming. I have three questions:

1- Is Kotlin better or React Native?

2- Do I need to know Java to learn Kotlin?

3- Do I need to know JavaScript to learn React Native?

Thank you.

1- Is Kotlin better or React Native?

You may need to learn several languages, these two included.

2- Do I need to know Java to learn Kotlin?

According to Wiki, Kotlin is influenced by Java, so learning Java would be a good first step.

3- Do I need to know JavaScript to learn React Native?

From what I know, React is based on JavaScript, so learning JS would be a good idea.

Keep in mind, that JavaScript is NOT the same as Java.
