I kindly disagree. Python tooling, documentation and lib maturity is nowadays comparable to Java IMHO. Which one is better suited for your problem is a matter of perception.

Javascript (on the backend) is obviously a different story.



Tooling for a dynamically typed language can never be on the same level as for a statically typed language. And among statically typed ones, from my experience, Java/JVM has the best and most mature tooling by far.


Having just recently moved on from a Python shop, I have to disagree. Vehemently. Python tooling is in no way as good as Java's.

Having moved to a Python shop, I disagree. I really would like it to be true, but it's not.
