Which Programming Language Is The Most Popular in 2017?

As popularity for each programming language tends to fluctuate, it would be a wise choice to choose the most popular or used programming language that is predicted to keep popular for years to come. We have summarized the most popular programming language for you to learn. The difficulties are various and it’s your decision to choose where to start based on your capability and interest.

C# is considered as a beautiful language which suits best to build enterprise and windows applications using .NET framework. Although it’s best used to build many Windows programs, C# has also been repeatedly used to build games, desktop apps, mobile apps, and web apps. As a subsidiary of C, C# is well-known as a strong and fast language program hence many popular websites built by it. Mention Facebook, Amazon, Paypal, Adobe Systems, and more. Even though it’s a popular language program, learning this language for beginners is considered as a difficult one. Thus, it’s best to learn C# along with a mentor.

Java is a very portable language program as it can be applied on all platforms, OS, and other devices. This language has been used to build Gmail, Minecraft, most Android apps, and enterprise applications. Considering its “friendliness”, Java has become one of the most popular programming languages in these recent years and more years ahead. If you’re a newbie to a programming language and don’t know which one you should learn first, we recommend you to learn Java as your first language due to the high demand and one of the highest paying programming language.

Considering as the easiest programming language, Python will help every beginner developers to understand programming concepts before moving to the next level. Python has been chosen as the first must-introduced programming language at school and it is also popular among data scientist and academic researchers. Many popular websites were built using Python with Django as its web frameworks, such as Youtube, Instagram, Spotify, and more.

After taking many to this date, Ruby has conquered the “battlefield” as it becomes one of the leading programming languages in the world. Moreover, with the rapid leverage of startups nowadays, many websites, especially the one who needs a rapid development, build with Ruby. Ruby is also popular and favored by developers, especially the newbies because it’s very fun and simple to code with. If you’re not convinced enough for Ruby’s popularity, this programming language has already overtaken Node.js on Github as well as Django in a few years back. We cannot predict if Node.js or Django can flip the current situation, but it won’t hurt to at least learn Ruby.

Who has ever thought that JavaScript becomes an underdog in this tight competition?
Constantly underestimated, JavaScript has proven itself as a demagogue in the coding realm (suck that, C!). Beforehand, JavaScript is labeled as the worst designed language ever and was used for making pop-up ads or notification on websites (oh, how we hate disturbing pop-up ads, moreover the ones who can’t be closed). Now, JavaScript is insanely popular programming language due to its ability as a server-side language (node.js) and a must learn for front-end web developer.

Brace yourself, folks, because another subsidiary of C is taking the spot on this list!
One of the most difficult yet powerful programming languages is coming to the town. As strong as it is, C++ has mostly used for high performance programs, especially games, browsers, hardware, and operating systems. However, don’t get discouraged for what we said earlier because it’s very worthy of you to learn and delve deeper into this language. Many companies are seeking for a developer who masters C++ to boost their business growth and the salary is nearly above average.

Although mocked as an ugly, inconsistent, and unpredictable language, PHP remains popular among developers from all over the world. The utmost reason why PHP is constantly popular is that more than 80 percent of websites in this universe are still built with PHP. No wonder, it’s suitable for building small and simple sites with a lower price.
PHP is considered as an easy language to learn, so don’t waste your time to think it twice!
