You say that, and yet for your cited Android apps, they are built using gradle, which is written for the JVM, or using Maven, which is written for the JVM, and likely even typed inside IntelliJ (aka Android Studio) which is written for the JVM. Also, this may be splitting hairs, but Android is actually dalvik, not the JVM
- tombert 2y agoThat's why I deliberately said "Java", not JVM (though I think dalvik has been deprecated and it's ART now). I'm sure you can list any number of programs that are written in Java, but it certainly has not been the cross-platform standard that everyone was promised; it feels like Electron has more or less taken its mantle in the world of desktop land.
