There are a lot of rumors about Learning Java programming language in 2018 while new programming languages are also launched in Market such as python. It is my personal opinion that technologies can't disregard the influence of Java because of it Multithres capability, Fast and effective memory location techniques and bulletproof security.

no java didn't die for android, java is everywhere, have you seen the impact of oracle? java won't die , and unfortunately won't improve much either, that's why there are branches of it now.
Really informative article! Itโ€™s great to see insights like this being shared. Cloud Access Control in Orange County is becoming an essential part of modern security solutions.

I wouldn't necessarily call it dead, but I would definitely call it/predict a decline. With languages like Flutter+Dart and Kotlin, Android dev is just (objectively) more enjoyable without the use of Java.

I personally would think that Java on Android would continue because a lot of students generally learn Java first (as a result of academia). When those students want to try exploring, it'd sometimes make sense to hop into Android since they'd have the necessary background to build upon, rather than starting from a clean slate.

Typically the rumors of any language's demise are greatly exaggerated. Even if Java is on the way out, I'd hardly think of it as anything close to dead.

Great article! Itโ€™s always good to see discussions on important topics like this. Security Cameras in Long Beach play a key role in enhancing safety and providing peace of mind. Itโ€™s great to see more awareness around this subject.

Both programming languages are outstanding and love both, but I prefer Java for developing robust software like Here Live Chat app (swiftchat.io) for business owners.

I think the Kotlin is the future. This is what one of my friends at cactimedia.ae was telling me.
