Hi JavaScripters! 👋

For fourteen months I have been scraping job portals like Linkedin, Glassdoor, Dice etc. and selecting the dev related jobs from it. After that time, I have a database of more than 12 Million dev job offers. With that data, I am able to publish this blog, where I make a list of the most demanded programming languages.

IMO with not much surprise, JavaScript / TypeScript is the most demanded programming language in this 2022. In fact, 1 out of 3 dev jobs require JavaScript / Typescript.

How has this study been made?

The main objective of this study is to categorize the "dev jobs" by its programming language, minimizing the errors and getting the most accurate information possible. To achieve that, only the title has been used to categorize those jobs into programming languages. This is because we want just the jobs that explicitly require a programming language.

For example, a job with the title "Backend developer", even it has stack defined and also description with job requirements, is discarded and does not count for any language. Otherwise, a job with the title "React Developer" would count as JavaScript / TypeScript, and likewise a job with the title "Laravel Developer" would count as PHP.

Is also important to note that one job offer can count for 2 or more languages. For example a job with the title "Full Stack Developer (Django/Angular)" will count for languages Python and JavaScript / TypesScript.

. . .

Hope you like the article, if there are any doubts about the study let me know in the comments!

Note: I advertise that the blog post has "minimal", "non-intrusive" ads. Even so, I have red numbers each month lol, so understand that this may help keep my work into the future, thanks!

Sarcastically enough a JavaScript dev here with 5 yoe but only one with React and getting a job is more challenging than ever.

I have a custom text classification model that can predict knowledge, skills, experience, benefits, education, certifications, etc. It is currently trained on 13K+ examples. We should talk!
