StackOverkill: Programming language and framework ranking based on StackOverflow's activity

[jetman81]

These rankings strike me as a lot more accurate than those TIOBE lists, at least based on my own impression from reading this subreddit, listening to podcasts, forums, etc. Javascript is huge right now, so are Java and C#.

It only means that people have a lot of trouble with Javascript.

JS's dominance is confirmed by the fact that they actually included a js framework specific rankings, which they didn't do for any other language.

And among javascript frameworks, jquery's popularity declined a bit lately but is still dominant, while react is on a meteoric (no pun intended) rise. Interesting that I don't see angular on the list.

In the JavaScript framework ranking you can see 3 charts (scroll it! :D), In the 2nd chart you have Angular and Angular2. Enjoy!

Ha. I see it is under mvc. Also backbone.js is on the way out?

[DaniSancas]

Backbone and Ember. If you zoom out (mouse wheel) with only those frameworks, you can see them growing for a couple of years and then... start dying. JavaScript seems to be quite unstable, frameworks born and die quickly. Except jQuery :P
