History of Java

History of Java

James Gosling and his team first developed Java at Sun Microsystems (now owned by Oracle) in the early 1990s. The language was designed with the goal of creating a platform-independent programming language that could be used for developing interactive television and other consumer electronic devices. 
Java's first public release was in 1995, and it quickly gained popularity as a language for developing web-based applications. Today, Java is widely used for developing various applications, including web, mobile, desktop, and enterprise software.
