Reasons to Love Java and the JVM

Succinctly put it: “The availability of intelligent IDEs, a backward compatible platform, a massive core API, a vibrant open source community, and a language that was designed for readability and encapsulation makes Java perfect for teamwork.”

The ecosystem of Java and JVM is a vast, sprawling entity, where even the most junior coder has the chance to stand on the back of giants to have their say and help to build something amazing.  Love it or hate it, this language is going nowhere any time soon – so you might as well have a say in deciding where it goes in the next decade.
