Js is clearly doing A job at client side programming, because there is nothing else available.
I would so, so happily drop Javascript for just about ANYTHING else that works on IE+Chrome+Firefox+Safari.
IMO, Javascript is just awful, and I know I'm not alone with that opinion.
- smoyer 14y ago"Js is clearly doing A job at client side programming, because there is nothing else available." So Java Applets are forgotten already ... and they had such grand plans! I for one won't miss them at all.
- romaniv 14y agoJava was never in a similar position to JavaScript. Java applets were never properly implemented as an integrated browser component that you can rely on. For example, you couldn't use Java to manipulate DOM and CSS.

I had that opinion at first, but actually Javascript is a pretty good (and even pretty) language if you stick to the good parts [1]. Having the code automatically checked by JSHint helps a lot.
