+## Alternative Programming Languages
+
+*Languages other than Java that can be used to write JVM applications*
+
+* [Scala](http://www.scala-lang.org/) - Statically typed programming language that fuses the object - oriented model and functional programming ideas.
+* [Groovy](http://www.groovy-lang.org/) - Optionally typed and dynamic language, with static-typing and static compilation capabilities.
+* [Closure](http://clojure.org/) - Dynamically typed programming language that can be seen as a modern take on Lisp.
+* [Ceylon](http://ceylon-lang.org/) - Statically typed object - oriented language developed by RedHat.
+* [Kotlin](http://kotlinlang.org/) - Statically typed programming language for the JVM, Android and the browser.
