huh, Java can just do "void main" now? or is the playground omitting some boilerplate? that was one of my main reason for never touching Java/C#, too much ceremony just to write a basic program.

C# allowed to write main-less applications for quite some time: https://dotnetfiddle.net/oGnV4m https://dotnetfiddle.net/oGnV4m

  I wouldn't say two years is "quite some time", but yeah that's cool

It is a preview feature right now, so the playground is adding --enable-preview. (there is a toggle for that.) java --enable-preview Main.java Things generally exit preview after ~2 releases.

    Yeah, though it’ll probably be non-preview in six months, so if that’s what’s holding you back you don’t have long to wait.
