Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2016

Published

Stack Overflow published the results from their 2016 survey. It shows JavaScript is on the rise and PHP has lost a little steam.

More people use JavaScript than use any other programming language. PHP appears to be falling out of favor as Node and Angular emerge.

What amazed me was the developer environments:

I had no idea Notepad++ was still so popular and that so many used text editors instead of IDE’s.

View the results yourself for insights into a lot more data points.
