The power of Java

I recently saw a Infographic pointing JavaScript as the most used language in the year 2015. And also direct see here on Sopt several posts about JQuery and JavaScript. My question is this, it is more advantageous to use only JavaScript, Html and Css to develop websites and web systems? Or use Javascript in Javaee projects? Taking into account factors such as difficulty and productivity.

    I don’t know if it’s gonna get shut down because it’s based on opinions, but Javascript is client side, while Java is server side, so it is as per your need and one does not eliminate the other.

  • I get it, I don’t know much about Javascript and almost no use in web systems I do in java. That’s one of the reasons for this doubt too.

  • From a researcher on nodejs and Angularjs

  • All right, I’ll look it up

Javascript has really gained a lot of space in recent years, mainly due to changes in the web development scenario. With the advent and popularity of libraries like Angularjs, it was possible to further reduce the dependency of a server-side language (such as Java, C#, PHP, etc.) on web projects.

To complete, the rise of Node.js allowed the development of complete web applications using only Javascript as a programming language (of course, HTML and CSS in the layout part).

So, it is possible to use only Javascript, but this choice will depend a lot on the situation and the programmer. I, for example, work with C# and PHP very well and do not see the need to use Node.js in the back-end of my applications, but it is good to know that this is possible and if at some point this is a requirement or advantage for a project, I will use it without problems. For example, Microsft Azure supports developing cloud services with Node.js, but also (obvious) supports C#, so for now I’m staying with C#.

Javascript, however, will always be present in the front-end of applications, acting in the validation part, Ajax, animations, etc.

I hope I helped. A hug.

  • Thank you very much, I have already started studying Node.js and I will see how it is. I like Java a lot but I want to expand my knowledge and not get stuck to just one language.

  • Just one more question, what would Azure be? is a server for me to put my application online? Or is it a service that allows me to program in the cloud?

    Azure is Microsoft’s cloud computing platform. In it you can rather host websites of the most varied technologies, but the service is not summed up to this. In Azure you have, for example, virtual machines, databases, mobile notification services, among many other tools that allow you to use the concepts "As A Service" such as Paas, Saas and Iaas. I strongly advise to give a researched on this, because it is an excellent platform.

  • All right, I’m going to finish studying Node.js and I’m already trying to do something on Azure
