When anyone talks about java and its features, why choose java,
what makes Java different from others etc.
For the above type of questions mostly you'll listen to the predefined answers - like
Platform independence
Object-oriented programming
Large developer community
Robustness
Security
etc.
Although these are obviously correct, these points play a major role, but apart from that we have lots of other reasons why java is the most powerful language.
Uncovering the Hidden Powers of Java
Automatic memory management: Java's automatic memory management, also known as garbage collection, makes it easy for developers to write code without worrying about freeing up memory.
Concurrency support: Java's built-in support for concurrency, through the use of threads, makes it easy to write code that can perform multiple tasks at the same time.
Dynamic class loading: Java's ability to dynamically load classes at runtime makes it possible to add new functionality to an application without having to restart it.
Built-in annotations: Java's built-in annotations, such as @Override and @deprecated, make it easy to add metadata to code and improve code readability.
Dynamic proxies: Java's support for dynamic proxies makes it easy to create objects that can mimic the behavior of other objects, making it useful for tasks such as mocking and testing.

Hi there, we encourage authors to share their entire posts here on DEV, rather than mostly pointing to an external link. Doing so helps ensure that readers don’t have to jump around to too many different pages, and it helps focus the conversation right here in the comments section.
If you choose to do so, you also have the option to add a canonical URL directly to your post.
