Watch out Java, here comes JavaScript | Developer World – InfoWorld.

I agree with the premise of this article and add (as always) that folks jumping ship from a static typing environment on large projects will not consider Javascript an excellent replacement. This is where haXe will shine.

The question is if haXe will be there on time and who will want to create bindings for the dozens of libraries one has to use for big Javascript projects.

Tom,
The bindings are a snap to create. In the same time that it takes you to debug two bugs caused by a lack of static typing, you could have created static bindings for the entire js library who’s lack of static typing caused the two bugs in the first place.
