Java programming language – the strengths and the popularity

Java is an object-oriented programming language that was originally released in 1995. The language is heavily influenced by the syntax of C and C++, and developers favor Java for its flexibility, enabling them to code once and run almost anywhere without recompilation, as well as its suitability for creating a range of applications. With more than 25 years on the Market, Java is still one of the most popular programming languages in the world. According to Github PYPL, Java is currently 2nd most popular language, losing only to Python. Here is why so many developers worldwide choose Java as their main programming language:

• Simple learning curve – it is easier to learn Java than C/C++ from scratch, and if you already have experience with C/C++ in past, learning Java will not be difficult for you. It has a big active community, which means that there is a huge amount of free materials on the web which can teach you Java.
• Write once, run everywhere – write Java once, and you can run it almost anywhere at any time. That means that you can use it to easily create mobile applications or run on desktop applications that use different operating systems and servers, such as Linux or Windows
• Powerful tools for development – Java’s Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is an extensive suite of various automation tools, editors, and debuggers. NetBeans, Eclipse, and IntelliJ IDEA are the most popular Java IDEs. As for tools, Java has Maven and ANT for developing Java applications, Jenkins for Continuous Integration and delivery, and JConsole and Visual VM for monitoring Heap usage.
• Object-oriented programming language – modular structure makes defining data types easy, code can be reused and recycled and it is easy to maintain too.
