- Javascript
- C#
- Python
Highest growth software development technologies:
- Dart
- Svelte
- Microsoft Flow

- Apache Nifi
- Kotlin
- Apple MDM
These are the languages that organizations have relied upon from inception and the vast majority of what today’s users experience is this code. These four heavyweights power everything from simple websites to complex, rich web applications.
Sean Farrington, SVP EMEA at Pluralsight, said: “Java, C++, SQL and HTML are annual staples on our Top 10 lists because they are the bedrock of modern business.
If you think back on how important Microsoft Access was to business in the 1990s, it’s easy to draw a parallel to these two new technologies that are quietly enabling innovation and self-service at every level of a modern organization. What surprised us this year, is that Microsoft Flow and PowerApps feature so highly.
