4 Programming Languages Top Website Development Companies Use in 2019
Because there are more and more new programming languages say hello to this world, it’s getting harder for coders as well as website development companies in Vietnam to choose the one that is perfect to adapt. Just imagine when you have a good idea but executive poorly because of the wrong stacks. What could be more painful than this scenario?
People at Designveloper understand your struggle, so this is an article that introduces 4 major programming languages worldwide. Let’s start with…
JavaScript
JavaScript is a programming language released in the late 90s. People and different website development companies use this one to program the behavior of various environments such as web pages, desktop, and server programs. Besides that, some databases (eg. MongoDB, CouchDB) also embrace JS as their programming language.
With JS, developers can do everything related to web page manipulation as well as interacting with the user and the webserver.
After more than 20 years of continuous development, JS has become the most popular programming language according to Stackoverflow. That said, this programming language is used and trusted mostly by large companies including Paypal, Netflix, Uber, etc. This happens due to its various benefits when applied to a certain project, especially web app ones. Below are several reasons why JS is practiced a lot:
- Universal support.
- Imperative and structured.
- Dynamic.
- Prototype-based.
- Functioned.
- Miscellaneous.
- Functional.
- Delegation.
- Vendor-specific extension.
And you know what, up until now, JS is the only language offering those advantages at the same time.
Let’s continue with some trends related to this language in 2019:
- Vue.js is getting more popular every day. There are 30,000 questions regarding Vue.js on Stackoverflow. On top of that, 2 of the most well-known companies — Gitlab and Alibaba — are using this one.
- Angular is seen as one of the most common JavaScript technologies on Stackoverflow.
- Website development companies are moving away from REST API and start paying more attention to GraphQL since this new query language is able to solve several issues that REST API can’t.
Python
Obviously, you don’t even need to be an expert to hear of Python. But let us introduce it anyway. Python is an objective-oriented programming language released in 1991 by Guido van Rossum.
At the moment, Python is mostly used in large projects by many website development companies, some of the most famous companies are practicing this language are Google, Wikipedia, Facebook, Amazon, Reddit, etc. Developers also write AI projects in Python alongside with libraries like TensorFlow, Keras, etc.
So the million-dollar question is “Why are there so many using Python?”.
There are many to list. First off, this programming language becomes a beloved one among others due to its ability to work across various platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.)
Furthermore, many experts suggest newbies using Python since its syntax is similar to the English language. This language was created to slither readability, you know.
However, Python is also well-known because it manages to handle big data and perform complex mathematics.
One more benefit here is that we need fewer lines of code to develop a certain project when using Python than some other languages. The last major advantage of Python is that code edited in Python can run as soon as it is written.
In other words, when coding in Python, developer productivity is increased in comparison with C and Java. Besides, Python enables us to write clear and logical code easier. Nevertheless, since there is no compilation step, the development cycle including editing, testing and debugging runs faster. This helps web development companies deploy code constantly.
Regarding Python development’s trends in 2019, we have these pieces of news for you:
- Developers around the world are embracing Python for data analysis, web development, DevOps, machine learning.
- Three most common Python framework for web development are Django, CherryPy, and Pyramid
C++
In 1979, Bjarne Stroustrup developed a general-purpose programming language dubbed “C with Classes”, then later, its name was changed into C++. At first, it was developed to solve various concerns of large scale projects.
In short, C++ is an object-oriented language and it’s also an extension of C. We as developers can use this language for system/application software, client-server application, drivers and especially embedded firmware. That’s why C++ is also called the “Swiss pocket knife of languages”.
Due to the fact that this language embraces the ability to adapt to this everchanging industry, C++ continues to be one of the most popular programming languages with a lot of website development companies.
The main reason why developers have not given up this 40-year old programming language is that once written properly, it always maintains a high performance. Besides, C++ can interface well with other languages. The ability to easily put data into a database or pull it out is another benefit when using this language to develop many types of projects. And maybe you have already known, a lot of game developers keep on adopting C++ because it can display high-speed graphics in games and videos.
According to Paul Richard on Tutorials Point, C++ is a language that is statically typed, compiled, general-purpose, case sensitive, free form, procedural programming, etc. Furthermore, compared to some other languages, C++ is fast and good for memory.
On the one hand, C++ generate effective and quality code. In other words, it runs very quickly. And you know what? Many programmers from different website development companies believe this is one of the fastest languages to use. On the other hand, C++ owns a huge ecosystem of frameworks, libraries, and tools.
Java
Java is another object-oriented programming language and in 2019, it became the most popular programming language with a community of 10 million developers according to Github.
Steve Zara, a 40-year experienced Java engineer put it, after more than 20 years since the day it was released, Java is still continuously evolving thanks to the combination of stability and innovation.
To some extent, website development companies pick up Java since they can write and edit code in this language effortlessly. Furthermore, Java is powerful across platforms and can be used for mobile applications, desktop applications, web applications, web servers and application servers, games, etc. Besides that, Java was built to execute a high level of security. That said, this language is one of the most secure ones to use by many website development companies up until now. However, the main reason why this programming language is popular is platform independence.
Some outstanding features of Java are
- Simple: it’s easier to use Java since this language has removed all the complexities such as pointers, operator overloading.
- Portable: we can write any applications on one platform but it still can be exported to another platform.
- Object-oriented: with this language, anything could be considered an “object”.
- Secured: every line of code is converted into bytecode after compilation, and obviously, a human cannot read these kinds of things.
- Dynamic: Code written in Java can adapt to an evolving environment that supports dynamic memory allocation.
- Distributed: This language includes a feature that can create distributed applications.
- Robust: Java owns a strong memory management system, it can eliminate a lot of errors.
In addition, coders can build applications that run offline or can be distributed across servers and clients in a network.
In conclusion,
Every programming language has its own benefits and advantages. As a result, your mission is seeking what is best for your future project. But hey, if you are still in the loop then let Designveloper give you a hand. Tell us your ideas and we will realize them for you!
