TFA mentions Groovy but not JavaScript which could be considered Java's direct dynamic/scripting variant given JavaScript's origin. In fact, there are two mainstream implementations of it even (rhino, nashorn), though not upgraded to ES2015.
- ben336 9y agoJava and JavaScript are not directly related. JavaScript added Java to the name for marketing purposes. JavaScript doesn't run on the JVM like the rest of these languages
- tannhaeuser 9y agoI'm well aware what Java is, given I'm developing for it (and other things) since 1997 ;) But my original comment was meant seriously, rather than cheap trolling. Unlike Groovy, JavaScript has excellent portability and a perspective to migrate code away from Java/JVM.
