RPG with a nice toolkit like CGIDEV2 or eRPG SDK is a great web
application tool, especially if your data is on an IBM i.
Does this make RPG the strongest web dev language?
Compared to what on the IBM i? Net.Data? WebSphere?
And what skillset does our programmer have? Before we can say x or y
is the strongest web dev language there are a lot of parameters to
define.
If we say an RPG programmer using an IBM i that also knows HTML, JS
and CSS, I'd say RPG in a heartbeat.
IBM never got behind RPG as a web programming language.
If we look at it in a ratio of RPG programmers to say, .Net, there are
fewer RPG programmers by far, so fewer examples, documentation and
tutorials. ie, a smaller audience.
