What's wrong with it being a java app? As it says on the github, create an account on openshift and its just a few easy commands to get it running. OpenJDK is nice and easy to install on most open hosting environments too.
- onli 14y agoMaybe. That is just based on my experience with java stuff, it is always complicated. I agree though that the instructions seem easy enough.
- vidarh 14y agoA lot of us harbour a strong hate of Java due to a decade or more of exposure to abstract factory factories, and obnoxiously slow jvm startup times, and a series of Java applications that are supposed to perform as "native" yet somehow all feel clunky, slow and bloated (Eclipse being the posterchild for all that is wrong with Java...). I actually have a half-baked code generator to use Ruby to generate Java for some Android hobby-projects because I found that less painful and obnoxious than writing the Java directly.
- deelowe 14y agoAre you referring to backend or frontend applications? Java on the backend seems to be very stable and popular. Though I don't have any experience with it personally, my understanding is that it's probably the most popular backend language for web apps in terms of deployment size and complexity.
