Top Coding Languages To Learn in 2022

A few decades ago, computer coding was sacred, with only a few expert coders worldwide. However, with the advancement in technology, the IT sector’s need for programmers is rising. According to the BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics), the employment of programmers will increase by 13% between 2020 and 2030.

If you’re planning to become a coder, here are the in-demand languages you should choose from:

Python
Python is the top, in-demand language of 2022. It’s not only popular because it pays a lot, but also because one can make simple automation and scripts all the way to complex AI and web programs. Although this language has been around for decades, its importance and need have now been unleashed. The demand for coders with expert Python skills is rising exponentially due to the rise in Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning industries.

Java
Java is the next most in-demand language preferred for the IoT (Internet of Things), which includes the multitudes of devices containing software, sensors, and other cutting-edge technology that allows the devices to collect and share information using the internet. The known fact that Java language is what charges the Android iOS of 85% of smartphones globally makes the language more popular. According to stats, the US Android developers make more than $107,000 on average per year. It’s a harder language to learn than Python. So, if you have a strong command of computer science fundamentals, learning Java will be easier.

JavaScript
Unlike Python and Java (languages running on the server), JavaScript works as a client-based language. This means that it runs and executes functions on the internet browser. With the help of JavaScript, you can make dynamic web pages with complex features, including animated graphics, content updating, and more. GitHub has deemed JavaScript the number 1 popular language, while HackerRank (in 2020) found JavaScript to be the most sought-after coding language by recruiters worldwide. If you have a knack for making visually pleasing web pages, JavaScript is your go-to language, as it powers 96% of websites for their individual page behavior.
