Cross Device
Gluon VM is designed with mobile devices in mind, and can scale up from there. It provides a critical foundation to Gluon Mobile, which allows for cross-device user interfaces and abstractions for common hardware features, as well as simplified cloud connectivity.
Blistering Performance
To get the very best performance out of constrained mobile devices, Gluon VM can operate in three modes: interpreter, just-in-time compilation, or ahead-of-time compilation. This ensures Gluon VM can offer blazing fast performance, regardless of the characteristics of the underlying platform.
Based on OpenJDK
Gluon VM uses the OpenJDK class libraries, and supports both Java 8 and Java 9 on Android and iOS. This ensures developers can maximize their productivity, benefitting from the many advancements in recent Java releases such as lambdas, streams, and modules (as well as all of the other benefits of Gluon Mobile).
