Tech What programming language is most in demand? - GoFuckYourself.com

Rob · 08-17-2014, 09:20 AM

Let's say in the next 3-5 years, what programming language do you think will be in the highest demand? PHP? .NET? Java? C++? With the increase in usage of mobile devices, I'm thinking Java is where it's at. But we'll still need web interfaces, so PHP and .NET is also in high demand. What are your thoughts?

JavaScript is making huge strides lately. But you're right about mobile and because of that, Java and C are the top languages and will continue to dominate.

When it comes to web based languages, Python, JavaScript and PHP will always rule over the rest.

Apple's Swift is going to be big for iOS and OSX.

Java is my bet.

Dunno about 3-5 years, but in 10-15 years perspective it will be the language that is tailored for concurrent programming for thousands of CPU cores.

Java is like a queen of languages,and now is even more then ever as it is core of mobile programming.

Ferus · 08-17-2014, 02:56 PM

c# and JavaScript/JScript

jimmycastor · 08-18-2014, 01:18 AM

michael.kickass · 08-18-2014, 05:59 AM

Php.....

Barry-xlovecam · 08-18-2014, 06:28 AM

Python and/or JavaScript for web work. Then C++ for serious code.

MPGdevil · 08-18-2014, 06:59 AM

What is used for Windows Phone apps?

blackmonsters · 08-18-2014, 11:41 AM

All I know is that it's probably not AS1, AS2 or AS3

Mikex · 08-18-2014, 10:43 PM

I think that biggest chance to be most used languages for few years are definitely Php and mobile app languages. Still there will be more less used languages like python, JavaScript...

Our company is trying to keep up with latest technologies and we trying to cover as many as its possible... Definitely its hard, cause there are so many of them, with dozens of frameworks and shit... :-)

Java. At least because Java developement is the most paid programmer work in my country.

JQUERY I'd say allows you to do the most...

Apart from that it doesn't really matter what you use... php, .net, blah blah... can make anything do what you want.

Newest project we're working on is still using SQL Server 2012, Visual Studio 2010, is done in vb.net. All that is being displayed to a visitor is pure HTML and JQUERY.

Site is 100% fully responsive, is faster than pretty much anything out there and scores 95-100% on all speed tests and platform tests.

Just use what you're used to, there's always a way to adapt it to whatever the newest trends are

JQUERY is not a programming language. jQuery is a tool built on top of JAVASCRIPT which is a programming language.

Why? jQuery is not a new language. You're still writing and using JavaScript.

Antonio · 08-21-2014, 11:29 AM

What are you after? Money? In that case, I would pick either Java or C#, I found C# slightly easier to learn, but I think Java pays better.
