If you’re in the field of software development or are thinking to join it, the first question that comes to mind is ‘what language to learn first?’. There are several programming languages out there but finding the first one to learn depends on your goals and interests. At Coding Pixel, we teach 7 programming languages.
Let us look at the top 7 seven languages you can learn in 2020 while keeping the future aspects in mind:
JavaScript
JavaScript is a ‘front-end development’ language typically used to design interactive and intuitive front-end applications. The syntax of JavaScript is flexible and works among all major browsers; it’s easy to learn and fix, that’s the reason it is popular among beginners and it has been the most popular language among developers for 7 years in a row. Many huge organizations like Facebook, Google, etc. along with HTML and CSS use JavaScript to maintain their front-ends: create new pages or display content to their users. JavaScript is highly versatile and has provided simple implementation and helps develop interfaces that are functional, unique, and aesthetically pleasing. , JavaScript is also used to develop applications.
JavaScript is ranked as the third most demanding programming language by indeed, it has 57k job postings and an average of $114K yearly salary.
Main Use Cases:
Python:
Python is said to be the most versatile and user-friendly programming language. Its syntax is easy to learn, clean and intuitive which makes it to the top of the list and popular among the beginners.
Python is used to write simple scripts, neural networks in AI, links to databases and mobile applications. Python has a vast library that is compatible with almost all the major systems and databases.
More fields of python include scientific computing, mathematics, and engineering for which python has packages like NumPy and SciPy. Python is also used in the fields of computer vision, data visualization, machine learning, etc. And has libraries like TensorFlow, PyTorch, sci-kit-learn, and OpenCV for building programs in it.
Python is the most demanding language in The USA, the average yearly salary is $120 K ranking it third in the list.
Swift
Swift is used to develop iOS applications, since android and iOS has always been on war, learning swifts gives an edge to iOS developers. Swift is taking the place of Objective-C in iOS development, it’s as fast as C++ and is becoming increasingly popular among different domains especially system programming.
Swift supports compiler toolchain like C/C++, Rust, and LLVM. It is a general-purpose language that offers high developer productivity.
Main Use Cases:
C# (pronounced C Sharp)
Is similar to other C languages, it low-key derived from them. If you already have some knowledge of any C language, leaning C# won’t be that hard. C# is used not only for Microsoft but also for iOS/Android development on Xamarin and Linux platforms. In addition to that, if your interest lies in VR development or making 2D, or 3D games, C# is the right choice for you. Developers claim that C# is ahead of java. It has a large number of libraries and frameworks. C# has the ability to work with shared codebases, it's scalable and automatically updatable, fully integrated with .NET library and supports quick compilation and fast execution times. Its 5th most demanding programming language with an average of $96K yearly salary.

Few of the many pros of swift are: it is backed by apple, it's flexible and open to new changes, manages the memory on its own, syntax is easy, easily integrate-able etc. Is has been ranked the 9th most demanding programming language by indeed and the average yearly salary is said to be $125K, making it in the second on the ranking.
Main Use Cases:
Java
Java is used by enterprises, its philosophy is “Write once, work anywhere”. Businesses use java to develop their apps so all of their users can have a similar experience. Its widely used for android development and it has been over a decade now and is still the number one language for enterprises. If you’re looking for a development-based job in top enterprises then java is the language you should learn, it's stable and easy to learn. Java has huge number of open-source libraries, it has its own stack allocation system with automatic memory allocation, it's platform-independent and ideal for distributed computing. Other than being a major part of development in enterprises, java is also being used in android development and its usage is increasing over the time.
Java is the second most demanded programming language in USA the its average yearly salary is said to be $145K.
Main Use Cases:
- iOS App Development
- System Programming
- Client-side development (via WebAssembly)
- Deep Learning
- IoT
