You\u2019ll see substantial results from your coding efforts in no-time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of its core simplicity, more startups and tech businesses are starting to use JavaScript on the backend via the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Node.js framework<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Node is an open source run-time environment that allows JavaScript code to be run on the server side, allowing web developers to use one language for an entire web app.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phyton_is_on_the_rise\"><\/span>Phyton is on the rise<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python is a general-purpose programming language used for web development and as a support language for software developers. Its popularity is driven by the continued growth and demand for machine learning developers, because is widely used in that area, as in scientific computing and data mining.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because uses indents instead of curly branches for grouping blocks of code, the structure is extremely convenient and clean. That\u2019s why Python is a great start for beginners and allows them to easily develop a project and further support it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python is a multi-paradigm programming language that means OOP and structured programming both supported. Also, it supports modules and packages which encourages program modularity and code reuse. Since there is no compilation step, the edit test debug cycle is incredibly fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Debugging Python programs is easy: a bug or bad input will never cause a segmentation fault. Instead, when the interpreter discovers an error, it raises an exception. When the program doesn&#8217;t catch the exception, the interpreter prints a stack trace. A source level debugger allows inspection of local and global variables, evaluation of arbitrary expressions, setting breakpoints or stepping through the code a line at a time. The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python&#8217;s introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Swift_a_more_approachable_language\"><\/span>Swift, a more approachable language<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swift<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> drops legacy conventions. Thus, you no longer need semicolons to end lines or parenthesis to surround conditional expressions inside if\/else statements. Method and function calls in Swift use the industry-standard comma-separated list of parameters within parentheses. The result is a cleaner, more expressive language with a simplified syntax and grammar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swift drops the two-file requirement. Xcode and the LLVM compiler can figure out dependencies and perform incremental builds automatically in Swift 1.2. As a result, the repetitive task of separating the table of contents (header file) from the body (implementation file) is a thing of the past. Swift combines the Objective-C header (.h) and implementation files (.m) into a single code file (.swift).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swift has an edge over its competitors as it also hosts the Automatic Reference Counting (ARC), a well-known feature which tracks down and manages an app\u2019s memory usage in real time to make sure it\u2019s not taking too much memory.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>PHP. Oldie, but goldie.<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We know that there aren\u2019t many fans of PHP, but it is still going to be really crucial in 2018 because it\u2019s a flexible programming language that can be used to develop anything from a single-serving site to more complex web structures with the same ease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because many of you know how to write PHP, instead of talking about its traits, we would like to say something about one of it\u2019s high-performance frameworks &#8211; Symfony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Symfony is a set of reusable PHP components, enabling the developer to create scalable, high-performance applications. With 30 components from which to choose, the developer has the complete freedom to experiment and work in a RAD environment. Symfony APIs also enable easy integration with third-party applications, and it can be used with popular front-end frameworks, such as AngularJS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many popular projects, including <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drupal<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">phpBB<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, also use <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Symfony framework<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In fact, Laravel, the most popular PHP framework, is build off of Symfony.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Golang is a Go<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we saw in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our previous article<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, more and more companies are going to start from scratch with Golang.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Golang demand will increase even more in 2018<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so if you&#8217;re willing to invest some time learning Go language, and become an expert, definitely it will be the right choice in your career path.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Golang<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is used in designing toolbox, documentation of browser, search engines, source indexing, analysis, and search. So, it will be beneficial for securing a good earning package by learning this language. Definitely, Golang is a great language for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">systems that need massive scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also a garbage-collector language which means you don\u2019t need to free up memory yourself. So you don\u2019t have to do any memory management yourself. If you\u2019re a C or C++ programmer, you know how tiresome it can get to manually allocate and free-up memory, so you don\u2019t have to do any of that with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Golang.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ruby. The right choice for startups.<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ruby operates as a dynamic, object-oriented language and it makes the code easy to read. Its demand is increasing so much that\u2019s become common within DevOps roles. i.e. engineers ensuring the reliability and efficiency of the servers running websites with high traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But first, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ruby<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has an incredibly simple beautiful syntax that allows a developer to do more with less code. Secondly, thanks to Ruby on Rails, getting a web application up-and-running takes less time than in other frameworks. This explains why startups are so fond of the language: it enables the famous startup mantra, \u201cmove fast and break things.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obviously, you don\u2019t have to know all of them. Pick one depending on your interest and get really good at it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And, if you already know how to joggle with at least one of this programming languages, take a look of our available positions.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even if you are a student, a skilled techie or a professional, there are many coding trends to look out [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3148,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[667,676,675,674,673,672,671,670,669,668,271,666,665,664,569,564,394,371,355,281],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3127"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3127"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3127\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":133389,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3127\/revisions\/133389"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3127"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intelligentbee.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=3127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
