What can I use instead of Java applet?

Why applet is discontinued?
The Java browser plug-in relies on NPAPI, which nearly all web browser vendors have omitted support for due to its age and security issues. In January 2016, Oracle announced that Java runtime environments based on JDK 9 will discontinue the browser plug-in.
Can Java applets run from a web browser?
Java is not enabled in the web browser. If Java is already installed but applets do not work, you need to enable Java through your web browser.
How applets are added to HTML?
To run an applet in a browser or in the JDK Applet Viewer, the applet needs to be added to an HTML page, using the tag. You then specify the URL of the HTML page to your browser or the Applet Viewer. Note: Some browsers don’t support easy, guaranteed reloading of applets.
Do you need a Java plug in for login applet?

Are there alternatives to Java plug-in in Firefox?
Firefox alternatives to plug-ins (technologies available within the browsers): For a longer-term solution, consider upgrading or migrating to a Micro Focus product that does not require Java plug-ins. These products and versions will not be affected by the deprecation of NPAPI.
Do you need a web browser to run Java plug-in?
The terminal emulation and file transfer components are deployed as applets in a browser and require a browser capable of running the Java plug-in. Alternatively, the terminal emulation and file transfer components can be deployed as desktop applications rather than as applets.
