JVMLanguages comprises computer programming languages that are used to produce software that runs on the Java Virtual Machine, e.g. see Jython and Python. Some of these languages are interpreted by a Java program, and some are compiled to Java bytecode and JIT-compiled during execution as regular Java programs to improve performance.

The JVM was initially designed to support only the Java language. However, as time passed, ever more languages were adapted or designed to run on the Java platform.

Java Virtual Machine or JVM, has been a notable revolution in the world of development. This helps in the development and deployment of software. It was initially designed for powering applications that were written using Java language. On the other hand, language designers realized the potential of JVM in running different languages.
Therefore, many JVM languages developed over the years with the massive class library and features provided by JVM. Besides Java, other languages can run on the Java Virtual Machine like Scala, Kotlin, Groovy, Clojure.
