He mentions Java, twice. There is nothing wrong with making web-apps in Java, and there are some nice web frameworks to help doing that.
- skrebbel 13y agoHmyeah, you're right, he does. But I doubt he would've included Vala if Android apps were typically programmed in it.
- collyw 13y agoDepending on the type of web app you are making, there are generally better (more productive) tools for the job than Java.
- edwinnathaniel 13y agoIn general, the productivity gap has dimnished signficantly. Unless if we are discussing prototype/quick throwaway/very small web app. In that segment, Rails is still the king.
- collyw 13y agoI was under the impression that you could build pretty decent robust apps with Rails / Django. OK, you wouldn't want to run the size of Amazon on those, but the majority websites are orders of magnitude smaller.
