Does Java have a future?

Saves a lot of licenses; that's why universities prefer it over the more widely used .NET environment.

You can freely use .NET and Visual Studio as a student (or small business).

I know, but universities won't teach it. God forbid the lefties teach something commercial.

I have no idea about today's colleges, but I went to college in Boston (1980s), so it was all DEC and OpenVMS.

Considering the shenanigans Oracle is pulling with Java, it won't be Androi, or any other app or O/S that kills Java. It'll be Oracle.

Dave KreskowiakSounds like the same plan Microsoft used with Windows Embedded. All of our new products are web browser based on our embedded hardware. And we don't have to put up with MS' crap any more.

Java is heavily used in enterprise level applications, such as messaging of transactions.
diligent hands rule....
And in the financial sector (in the UK at least, I know this courtesy of my brother, who used to work at Barclays Bank here in the City)

I think it's more that Java was always free so all study material is based on Java. There are classes in C# (game development with Unity, I think, and others), just not most of them.

Considering the fact that tens of millions of mobile devices run on the Android operating system, there is no doubt that Android is a major operating system. Traditionally the majority of applications for the Android system were developed using Java. However, now Google seems determined to gradually move developers away from Java and to Kotlin. Case in point: It seems that new enhancements for the Android system, only apply to applications written in Kotlin. They are not available if you work in Java. A major enhancement was the new Jetpack Compose feature that is only available for Kotlin, not Java. Jetpack Compose is a new way to develop user intefaces that requires no XML code, and is supposed to be a lot easier to work with. Kotlin is also available for other operating systems, like Windows and Linux. So you can write Kotlin code for Windows desktops, for example. (I would recommend that you learn Kotlin, before tackling Jetpack compose.) See here: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/compose-mpp/[^] If you are interested in learning Jetpack Compose, there is this excellent book available on Amazon as a Kindle download: (Make sure you get version 1.2 of the book, not the older version that is now outdated, but still being pushed by Amazon.) https://www.amazon.com/Jetpack-Compose-1-2-Essentials-Developing-ebook/dp/B0BG5RHVNH/ref=sr_1_3?crid=27WXNCXUFC9QW&keywords=jetpack+compose+1.2+essentials&qid=1667659434&sprefix=%2Caps%2C74&sr=8-3[^]

"It's free"; yes. That's the part, innit? I might be going back to school. The first thing they'll teach me is python, the VB of scripted languages. Most jobs I can see require .NET. I'm still going to do it, I'm gonna learn to python. It's a "hogeschool", and I seriously felt out of place. Looking on the bright side, I might become a real dev :)

Ah Python, the place where critical thinking goes to die... :-)

Well. Short pound then. My apologies, but it is what it is.
