"Struts", and similar weirdness.</p><p>We had a brief foray into the cul-de-sac of Applets (running Java UI within a web browser); this was, unfortunately, extremely slow, using an external plug-in. Modern browswers could probably make a decent go at this if they tried again, though in practice that won't now happen.</p><p>I'm still programming in Java on the back-end, mostly using Spring Boot. And having to fight the awfulness of JavaScript / TypeScript for front-end work. That, therefore, qualifies me as a 'full-stack' developer nowadays (albeit mostly retired).</p><p>I know that Java programming is derided by the glitterati, but it is a useful workhorse which will be around for a while yet.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Java" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Java</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Java30" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Java30</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/SpringBoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SpringBoot</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Bristol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bristol</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/HPLabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HPLabs</span></a></p>
