Javascript:
- can be run on web browsers with sproutcore/cappuccino.
- can be run on web server with node.js/express.
- can be run on mobile phones with appcelerator/phonegap.
- can be run on the terminal as scripts.
Of course javascript will grows stronger on the latter three areas by time.
I read somewhere someone said something like:
"What coders want is very simple: One language, everywhere".
Has Javascript succeeded to be a language that could be run everywhere compared to others?
I cannot name another language that could.
