Conversations like this are always illuminating.

Any Nigerian developer who hates PHP should be interviewed. PHP has paid most of us more than any other language.

HOWEVER...

On the other fence of php developers are people who do everything with PHP. They learn php, try to learn other languages, bang their heads against the wall, and restrict themselves to PHP. These are the guys we keep trying to save!!!

Learning just PHP and insisting it meets all your needs as a programmer is ridiculous. Just like learning only Java and insisting its the best is ridiculous. This is why its as if there's a stigma against PHP developers. But the stigma is actually against the many, many, many Nigerian developers out there whose sole programming weapon is PHP.

I personally am one of those who encourage this stigma.

Looked it up. its nice and simple. The owner should start using it right away as i believe its market ready.

However, it could be more beautiful. When I hover over an item, i should know am about to select that item. Then clicking the price of an item should also launch the item.

Awesome Job.

Olyboy16:


larisoft has produced zero reasons why he "claims he is " leaving java. java isnt the best though but its still a language to love.

BUILD:
of all the languages in java's family, only java can produce cross-platform executable without any third party software and in less than 15 letters of shell command.

INSTALLATION:
as of java 1.8, JDK package comes with a default jre.
to install java, you only need one software, JDK; nothing else; i have a programmer(phD) with over 15 years experience who uses notepad for his java codes.
larisoft should realize that not everyone has the ability to think logically and with zeal like programmers do; not all "newbies" are meant to become pro coders.

LANGUAGE:
OP probably hasnt used java to the point of loving it. theres binding, parallel streams, functional interfaces, etc.

Really apt points there. And thanks for the correction on the JDK being bundled with JRE as of Java 1.8. But you seem to be saying that I havent used java to the point of loving it. Meaning that its about love. I love java. God! What i'm saying is that, in the face of a fast growing tech scene, Java has remained pretty much the same. The consequence; she is losing her ecosystem. I run a software development company and its just sad that I keep finding fewer reasons to type "javac", or run spring; except when am teaching a student.

The s of this site should have predicted the upheaval an action like this would cause. I would think that by now, a as consistent and charismatic as dhtml18 should enjoy a few privileges...like being made a mod, or at the very least, getting notified before getting clamped down on.

Honestly, the message this sends to me, and every other programmer, who rely on this board for PR purposes, is to be careful. That our s (and brands) can be banned anytime without opportunity for self explanation.

That's a sad message.

Lol.. just learning about this. Seun banned dhtml18? Who go come remain for nairaland programming section?


WE MUST RIOT!!!!

DevDenky:
You just succeeded in explaining how unique Java is, and how it stands out from other languages. You succeeded In making me love Java more.

Has nothing to do with love, bro. Leave sentiments for now. When a language enters a space, which java has been walking into, developing in it becomes so expensive, most people who know what they are doing would rather avoid it.

If you were asked to write an android app, and you knew javascript well: which would you consider first? An ionic app that will work on windows, iphone, android, blackberry; or one native app that will take longer and will require someone on a salary of atleast 300k to maintain?

Lets be honest! Java is going!

This means less attention/ fewer open source libraries. And it will get to the extent where even academics will shy away from it too. I know for one that if you or I wanted to release a library for something in Nigeria, we wouldnt be doing it java. Very few of the people we are trying to help will use it. Now, what if we used PHP or say python?

Its not about sentiments, bro?

Thanks guys! This is what i was hoping for! For the gurus to come out and share what they think. All in all, i think java is getting far less popular than it used to be. Its only a matter of time and it will be where c++ is today; FOR SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES ONLY!

Reading the title of this post; the typical tech Lord is frowning his face, wondering what larisoft smoked last, and preparing to leave a few f bombs in the comment section to set the idiot straight. Unfortunately, i haven’t smoked ever. Unfortunately, the f-bombs will be unwarranted. Probably because unfortunately, the post title is true: java is dying!


Does anyone what it was like programming in Nigeria between 2009 to 2014? Java was the thing! Nokia phones were everywhere so the go-to language to reach the average joe who, of course, could not afford a symbian phone was: Java! Internet access was still a novelty most offices didnt have so the go-to language to develop portable enterprise applications was: java. And towards the end of the era, a new shiny operating system emerged and changed things so fast we all spinned. And guess what its programming language was? You guessed it! Java!


Everyone was doing java! Those who werent felt insecure. Not knowing java meant you had to turn down several lucrative opportunities. Myself; i was coding java like that’s all there was and till date, i have not invested as much time in any other language as i have in java.


Its 2017 and we are all finding that our java skills are being kept in the shelfs for far too long. It’s becoming one of those things you use on two projects in a whole year (except of course java is your core specialization and you are in an organization that is relatively old).


How did it happen?


1. Javascript came along and started making trouble:

Yeah! JAVASCRIPT!


Javascript first started out as a few lines of code you copied from stackoverflow or you know, wherever. No one really gave it that much attention. All of a sudden; we started seeing more and more of the guy (javascript) on pages that mattered (google, facebook, etc). Then some really troublesome guys went and developed phonegap, you know because they wanted developers who were too dumb to learn java, to be able to program mobile apps.


At this point, things weren't too roughed up for dear Java yet. Phonegap was still so slow people who used it were simply thought of as lazy. Then it kept getting better. And google released angular. And ionic came with the tide and used angular. Long story short; today, writing native apps with android is usually only for special circumstances.


Turns out very few android apps are ‘special’. And so a lot of android apps are getting written, but very few of them require hardcore android studio and good old java. Most apps now are fine and fast in javascript and one of its many mobile frameworks.


Javascript! Who would have thought that? It’s like David killing Goliath!!!


2. Java maintained a high learning curve even in the face of easy to learn languages like php and python. And ...again: javascript.


I dont know why the guys managing java let this happen. Till date, using java as a beginner is pretty much as difficult as it was 9 years ago. Java just doesn't care for ‘dumb’ guys.


For instance, using php for a beginner might be hard since you had to install an awful lot things (Apache, mysql, php, php-cli, etc) but it was simplified by WAAMP and LAAMP. The average joe could just install lammp stack, visit http://localhost and feel like a genius.


With Java; you had to install jdk. If it didnt come with jre (and it didnt most times), you had to install that one too. And what if your system architecture is x32 and you installed an x64 version? Uuummm...what is he saying? Right? And oh! I forgot, There is java EE and there is java SE. Which one will you be needing? There are books that explain the differences but they are only over 500 pages long.


Now, we’ve gotten the ground wet a little bit, you have to set variable path (which is not as easy as it sounds, trust me). After that, the installation then begins. You have to choose one of these very very heavy IDEs: ecliipse, netbeans, Intellij. But wait, the beginner still doesnt know what an IDE is. After installing the ide, you have to learn how to use it to build a program.


At this point; our beginner just gives up and goes to watch...say… Keeping up with the kardishians. Shit is too freaking hard.


Even C# which is java’s strongest competition is made as easy as milk by visual studio...which simplifies development so much that there are CTOs whom are of the opinion that programmers who use visual studio are not real programmers.



But java remained consistently difficult to grasp. Gradually, more and more guys were ing the industry and most of them werent geniuses. So our php space kept getting crowded. Today, i cant even write an app in Java anymore because maintaining it will be a nightmare. No one else will be able to maintain the app if am not around. Everyone is all about php/python/node.js these days.



In conclusion, java is still a respected language which commands the best salaries in today’s industry, but it’s dying. No CTO would rush to implement a program in java without giving it a second and third thought. This means that fewer programs are getting implemented in java. This means that the demand for java is falling. This means there are fewer developers thinking of creating libraries in java (what with all the javascript library madness). This means that java is dying.
