Same age as JavaScript and Python is 5 years older still. I hear a lot more about these 2 languages. There must be more to it than simply age.
- moksly 7y agoIsn’t JavaScript a similar story within its ecosystem? A lot of the new flashy things get a lot of attention, but all the jobs are for Angular. It’s very anecdotal of course, and react does have some traction, but it’s almost all Angular. I’ll agree with python, but around here python jobs require (and prioritise) some sort of university degree in math or statistics. There are a lot of python jobs, just not for software developers. If you move near Copenhagen it’s much nuanced. You might even be able to find a job writing Rust there, but where I live, chances are there won’t be a single Rust job in my lifetime.
