Jython combines the capabilities of Python and Java, allowing you to run Python scripts and modules on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). This is great for developers looking for a single solution offering the ability to use Python's clean syntaxes and Java's libraries and frameworks.

 

Features:

You can access Java libraries from Python and Python code from Java. Projects that need the capabilities of both Python and Java can use Jython to build scalable applications.
  • With Jython, you can import the Java classes into your Python scripts seamlessly. This means you can use Java's advanced capabilities with Python.
  • Python is known for its readability and simple syntax. This is what you get with Jython. You can write Java applications with fewer code lines. 
  • Jython is designed to support almost all the scripts and modules supported by Python. This makes it a versatile tool for users skilled in either Python or Java. If you know either one of them, you can easily learn Jython. 
  • It runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which means that once you have written the code, you can run it on any platform that supports Java. This helps you easily deploy and distribute applications for many operating systems.
  • Using Jython, you can reduce the development time because it helps you with rapid prototyping and code execution.
  • You can access Java libraries from Python and Python code from Java.
  • With access to many Java libraries, you can learn Jython quickly to create GUIs, Databases, Frames and more. 
  • Jython gives you access to many great features of Java, like JIT compilation, and concurrent models like threads, locks and data structures. You can use all these to write multithread applications in simple Python code.
  • Anyone already using Java codebases can use Jython to create new components. This means you can reuse the libraries.
  • Projects that need the capabilities of both Python and Java can use Jython to build scalable applications. 

Jython gives you the features of Python and Java in a single offering. You can access a large number of Java libraries using Python to build high-quality applications. Any application based on Jython automatically works on devices which support Java. With Jython, you can use the highly-readable code of Python to write code quickly and fasten the development process. Jython is a great language for learning code quickly and creating projects that need the features of both languages.
