Hey Coders!!
A lot of you have been telling me that rust is soon going to replace java.
Looking at the perspective of the number of people using java, I would say Rust isn't going to replace java.
I don't think a language can fully replace another one.
Oracle released Java in 1995. It is still used worldwide by so many developers out there.
I mean, sure, Java is pretty lengthy and we need another way to make it easier to write code.
Technologies such as Rust and Go function the same way as Java but they are written in shorter code.
Hello World Written in Java:
class Simple{
public static void main(String args[]){
System.out.println("Hello Java");
}
}
Hello World Written in Rust:
fn main() {
println!("Hello world!");
}
Well, Rust does have a lot of new more interesting ideas and concepts but we don't know whether they are going to be adopted universally.
There are also a lot of other companies that have java code written in their programs.
One advantage of using Java is that you have a lot of libraries and APIs available.
Well, Rust doesn't really have as many developers as Java does.
Rust might not be large enough to become a conventional language.
The Final Reason why I think Java won't be replaced is because the entire company of Android has a lot of servers that run on Java.
Overall, There is a possibility that Rust could replace Java but it most likely wont.
I hope I answered your question and I hope you enjoyed this blog!
And don't forget...
Keep Coding Y'All 👨🏻💻
