I'm not a mobile developer so you shouldn't ask me but basically because of web browsers there's a JS VM in every PC and smartphone nowadays which isn't necessarily the case with Java. And Android runs its applications on a Java VM called Dalvik: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_(software)
- Grazester 12y agoDalvik is not a Java VM though it is a VM. As of Lollipop Android left the whole VM thing behind and moved to ART so there is no stagnation on that front You linked to the page that states it all but its like you didn't bother to read it yourself.
- Gurkenmaster 12y agoDalvik is a joke, even v8 is faster than it and it's not a JVM. That's why Oracle was trying to sue Google.
