While i was thinking about the next generation development environment,
i came to the conclusion that javascript will play an important role.
Why? It is available almost everywhere in most web browsers , Adobe AIR, Google Gears, iPhone and many mobile devices. Not only on the client side you can create form based user interfaces with ExtJS, but also on the server side for example with Jaxer.
The language is easy, well documented, powerfull because it has functions as objects, and *because* it has prototypes and ...its for free :-)
With the javascript subset JSON data transfer is a simple as XML and you can even easily transfer code ond use it on the fly. Perfect for synchronizing local and remote code like Trimpath Junction shows.
So we only need javascript and no PHP, C++, Java, Ruby + Javascript + HTML + XML and framework combo mombo anymore. Keep it simple !!!
Probably we will have some different javascript frameworks around but hey nothing is perfect....
So no please don't tell me all those: its not a 'real' language, has no strong typing, has no OOP classes etc. simply forget the brainwashing an thin what do we really need and what is there? If there is something missing it is a lack of standard libraries.
Happy hacking.
BTW: Do we really need this SQL stuff anymore ?!?
