I have to write a web application, and I am not sure which technology to choose. The user interface has to look like a desktop application. From my (limited) experience with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, I know this is far from easy. What I'd like is to be able to program just like in C++, C# or Java, because I think these languages are far more suited for implementing a GUI.
My question is threefold:
Update: Thanks for the many responses!
No , you can't . Even no one cannot make a website without using a single html tag. You can make website without css, js, scripting language.
If you want to use Javascript on your website but you do not want to write Javascript yourself, you can use website builders or Content Management Systems like WordPress. Website builders can help you make amazing websites without writing any line of code in Javascript or any programming language.
Yes, JavaScript can be used without html. Node is another option. JavaScript was originally a web scripting language until node js was introduced.
HTML and CSS are the basic languages of websites, and you need both to make a good website. HTML without any CSS will not only look ugly, but it can make it look like there's a serious problem with your site. HTML and CSS are very easy to learn, compared to other coding languages.
Yes, it is possible you could use Silverlight or JavaFX (even though it would require a minimum of HTML like 4 tags...).
The problem with Silverlight or JavaFX and Flash at the same time is that they suck at SEO, that is search engine optimization, as Google & co can't look inside your app.
