But I think you're confusing a language with a development platform/VM/runtime.
C# is a language. .NET is a platform that includes a C# compiler.
Java is a language. JVM is a platform that includes a Java compiler.
Javascript is a language, not a platform.
What Javascript platform do you think can replace .NET and JVM? Node.js on top of V8?
Or are you really suggesting that Javascript inside a web browser is all you need for application development anymore?
- rubinelli 13y agoFrankly, I'm not sure. A stripped browser + Node.js sounds pretty compelling, but there are tons of projects using Javascript or offering Javascript bindings right now. It could be Qt 5, for example.
