If you have solved this one, there's a good chance you can guess my starting word!

Ooooo! Closer to a 1 guess you could not have got!

Same second word as you - it did make the third guess pretty obvious!

Considering the fact that tens of millions of mobile devices run on the Android operating system, there is no doubt that Android is a major operating system. Traditionally the majority of applications for the Android system were developed using Java. However, now Google seems determined to gradually move developers away from Java and to Kotlin. Case in point: It seems that new enhancements for the Android system, only apply to applications written in Kotlin. They are not available if you work in Java.
A major enhancement was the new Jetpack Compose feature that is only available for Kotlin, not Java. Jetpack Compose is a new way to develop user intefaces that requires no XML code, and is supposed to be a lot easier to work with. Kotlin is also available for other operating systems, like Windows and Linux. So you can write Kotlin code for Windows desktops, for example. (I would recommend that you learn Kotlin, before tackling Jetpack compose.) See here:
https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/compose-mpp/[^]
If you are interested in learning Jetpack Compose, there is this excellent book available on Amazon as a Kindle download: (Make sure you get version 1.2 of the book, not the older version that is now outdated, but still being pushed by Amazon.)

The better question is whether or not my future includes java (the beverage, not the language).

Which means it still has a good 40 years to go, at least.

Considering the shenanigans Oracle is pulling with Java, it won't be Androi, or any other app or O/S that kills Java. It'll be Oracle.

I think IBM/RedHat will keep Java going now in spite of Oracle.

Sounds like the same plan Microsoft used with Windows Embedded. All of our new products are web browser based on our embedded hardware. And we don't have to put up with MS' crap any more.

Oracle, a place where software goes to die.
I might be a little jaded trying to navigate their licensing shenanigans, but I still think it's factually correct.

it depends on where u work or what you support .... big companies like ibm / oracle / sap / still have java and java is mature for enterprise...oracle solaris /ibm zos etc support java and large corporations etc use java
