A small amount of JavaScript working with Json from a backend works very well for us.
You don’t always need explicit class definitions. it does require a different programming style than a more object oriented language.

Another problem is that they do not publish the price of a commercial license. That are restrictions that cause many programmers not to use it. https://zeroc.com/licensing On 23-02-18 13:59, Thomas Beale wrote: Belated thought on this topic: a much better way to connect a JavaScript front end with a Java back end, or any similar combination, would be with a binary RPC protocol like ICE<https://zeroc.com/products/ice>, that comes with tools to make it all work. - thomas On 05/02/2018 22:04, Thomas Beale wrote: yes, JS = javascript, TypeScript etc. No, nothing to do with Java of course. Just that JS/TS are the languages that seem to be popular for web app development these days, and Java for the back-end. The connection between front and back-end that people seem to prefer these days is REST APIs, which both Java and JS can do easily enough. - thomas On 03/02/2018 07:56, Peter Gummer wrote: On 1 Feb 2018, at 05:13, Thomas Beale <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: ... But the main interest is that we will be able to build new tools such as a Java/JS replacement for the ADL Workbench, and of course things like a high-quality, BMM-driven runtime archetype validating kernel for EHR systems, workflow implementations and many other components. Hi Thomas, does “JS” stand for JavaScript? If so, I don’t understand how Archie (written in Java, disappointingly) would enable JavaScript implementations. JavaScript has nothing in common with Java (apart from the name).
