Programming Languages to Learn Today and Others That Are Slowly Dying
<p>One of the most daunting tasks of a software engineer is to stay updated on the latest trends and technologies. There’s a constant barrage of new things to learn, but we can only do so much.</p>
<p>As we start working on a new technology, other stones are left unturned, and some are even put back into the ground.</p>
<p>That’s why I want to investigate what programming languages attract the most developers and which are heading for a slow but steady death.</p>
<h2>About the data and method</h2>
<p>The data comes from the <a href="https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">StackOverflow Developer Survey</a>, a yearly survey asking developers a wide range of questions.</p>
<p>Each year has around 70K respondents from different parts of the world and with different roles.</p>
<p>In this story, I’m showing you the popularity of different programming languages for 2021, 2022, and 2023.</p>
<p>I’ve decided to treat all languages equally, even if that means comparing apples with oranges.</p>
<h2>About the question</h2>
<p>The survey has several questions, but the one we’re looking at asks what programming languages the respondent have worked with extensively in the past year.</p>
