Giving up (on) Java
Creating a web application in Java was fun, for a little while. Then the novelty of frameworks like Hibernate wore off, and I found myself programming the same functions in different Managers - over, and over again. It got tedious.
Maybe I don’t really understand how to use the frameworks properly, or maybe I didn’t choose the right framework, but I feel that there is something I need from this tool that it isn’t provided for me. I am looking for a different language. From my readings, Lisp seems like it may just fit my needs.
Lisp is described as a “programmable programming language”. I’m not entirely sure what this means, but it sure does sound exciting. Another exciting thing is that a lot of really smart people seem to be using it and promoting it as a very productive language. (Not just Lisp people, but also people who have many years of experience with modern languages like C/C++/C#/Java).
The primary problem I see with Java is that it seems as if it wasn’t designed for a single person to create complicated applications. All the frameworks and segmentation of code make it the perfect language for a bunch of programmers to build large systems in. This is not what I’m looking for now, so I’m going to keep looking for a more suitable tool to build what I need.
(there are a myriad of sites describing Lisp to different degrees, just search for it)
