Hello, As someone who comes from a background in web development, I've spent very little time with Java, so I have a relatively fundamental understanding of it. After taking the time to remove OpenJDK from my Linux Mint installation and install Oracle JDK so I could install the SDK package for Ubuntu, I found myself wondering why Tizen development requires Java to be used when the focus of the OS is on using HTML5 and JavaScript. I haven't been able to find much info online, so I was hoping this group could help me.
My guess would be that is has something to do with packaging the apps to be run on the emulator and hardware, but I could be wrong. Would anyone be willing to shed some light on this for me? If I had the notion to develop and test apps for Tizen on Linux without using Java, would that be a possibility; if not, what would get in the way?
