Switch to Java from Python? #390

Open mayhem7 opened 3 years ago

mayhem7 commented 3 years ago

Hi there, i'm currently using the Python library to make Binance API bots, this was before i found THIS library, i'm more a POO developer (Java was my first love) but i had to learn Python for that reason, the question is simple, should i change to this library to work with Java or Python has better excuses to keep working with them like... fastes / better performance?...

Thanks!

For what it's worth, I think this Java library is a step in the right direction, but not ready for prime time (see my comments above). On the Binance telegram channel today (October 5 2021) Jeremy (I think from Binance) indicated that a Java library update is forthcoming (though I confess I am a little nervous that he referred to it as a connector, which may or may not be as robust as I or other Java developers would like). Though I have done 'quick and dirty' projects in Python, I do not want to base my trading code on Python. All this to say, bug Binance (maybe comment in Telegram) to work on getting a solid Java library ready.
