Comparing 2024 and 2025, Ruby is growing again but still on the lower end of spectrum.
Both Java the language and JVM is great. A lot of the important work for JVM just landed. I am not even sure if there are anything that is really missing anymore. But the whole ecosystem is so vast I wonder if anyone would want to just craft out a subset of Java.
No Zig, Crystal, Odin, but Julia and Elixir is there just without numbers.
- zeeqeen 1y agoI think it is because that the application framework of Google Android is JVM. And JNI is so annoying that binding Kotlin and other system-level programming language other than C++ like Rust, Zig for a Android app is so hard. For game engine developers that works for their game targeting Android, especially for commercial mature game, you have no choice but Unity engine. And take a look at Google announce [a donation of $250,000 to the Rust Foundation](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7376353918022270976/ https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7376353...) but there still constraint on using Rust library for Android app.
