HTML, JavaScript, and Python are the most popular, but Clojure will earn you the biggest pay check.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Four a tenth year running, JavaScript has held onto its title as the most popular programming language in the world, new data from Stack Overflow
shows.

Surveying more than 73,000 developers worldwide, the coding platform found that JavaScript is used by 65% of all respondents, followed by HTML /CSS (55.08%) and database language SQL (49.43%).

The competition at the top of the rankings is tighter for rookie developers, however, with JavaScript, HTML/CSS and Python "almost tied" as the most popular languages for people learning to code. Learning to code

Many people learning to code are turning to online courses. Among all the different platforms that offer such services, Udemy is by far the most
popular one, used by two-thirds (66%) of the respondents. Coursera is second with a third (35%), and Codeacademy third (26%).

One of the reasons why Udemy seems to be so immensely popular, compared to other platforms, is because it allows people to purchase individual courses they want, and doesnt force them to necessarily follow a certain path.

But most popular doesnt necessarily mean most lucrative. The report says that Clojure remains the highest-paid language to know, with the average salary crossing the $100,000 mark. Dart is the most poorly compensated language,
with developers earning an average salary of just $43,724 a year. Read more

Full-stack (46%), back-end (43%), front-end (26%), and desktop developers (15%) continue to account for the majority of all respondents. Upgrade you coding rig with the best laptops for developers
