For general computing the question is how to deploy a Julia-based app. For server-side stuff, I suppose it's no worse than Python, but not as easy as Go where you create a standalone executable. For client side, I think it will be quite hard to target browsers or phones since Julia has an unusual kind of just-in-time compilation.

This could be overcome but it's not really Julia's niche which is interactive use of notebooks by scientists or other people who are comfortable writing code.
