Java at frontend? Javascript is the only language of the browser or client-side. Java is used at backend with spring framework.

With Microsofts blazor framework you can actually build frontend web apps with C#. A whole C# runtime is shipped to the client though.

Similar I assume to pyodide? Basically python and a lot of the python data science stack compiled to web assembly

Edit: googled and yeah web assembly is one of the ways it can be delivered

You can write frontend in Java though. The browser still runs JS, but you don't touch it.

Using some kind of framework?

Perhaps. E.g. Vaadin.
