Not sure how this was judged... Seems silly to list jQuery, React, and Javascript... If jQuery, React etc is on there obviously JS is too? They should really break down the numbers.
And what is meant by trending? I assumed this was judged by people hiring for the technology but they list Node as being a top-trend yet on their website Rails has more job openings than Node... Seems weird.
- mgutten 10y agoOriginally we thought the same thing, but we wanted to remove as much bias from the analysis as possible, so we opted to keep all tools in the running. Since the weighted rank was based heavily on tech stack inclusion, we felt it was more valuable to keep the raw rankings. For trending, we calculated tech stack growth over the past 6 months for each tool. I wish we had time to pull in job data, but the data pull was going to delay the article a while and there are some core features we were itching to get at (there's only 6 of us on the team). Not saying this is a perfect list, but it's a snapshot of the data we have and felt it was a good indication of what developers/teams are using.
