Thanks for interviewing at Stripe. At Stripe, our interview process has some interviews where you write code, typically on your laptop. To make sure that we can use our time best in the interviews, we'd like to have you do some setup on your laptop in advance.
We've created a gradle project to help candidates determine if their laptops were setup to write Kotlin, so interviews can be about evaluating the candidate, and not the way their environment is setup.
