There is a lot of hype, which programming languages to learn in 2019.

Some are easier to learn, others offers more lucrative job opportunities.

So, what is the top list?

Well, here is a subjective view of top programming languages to learn in 2019 – to get a job.

#3. C++

C++ is a great language, if you are into game development. But, it is quite hard to learn. Learning C++ can be similar to jumping into ocean, while you still don’t know how to swim.

#2. Swift

Swift – a top language for developing iOS apps. There are plenty of job opportunities in this space. Practically every business needs some kind of mobile app these times.

But, in order to program in Swift (or learn programming in Swift), you will need to have a macbook and iPhone – so count on that.

#1. Javascript

Javascript became a super popular language. There are plenty of Javascript frameworks, used in all kinds of applications – Angular, React, Vue, Node.

Sometimes javascript can be “too messy”, but it’s a great language to start learning. And, to FIND A JOB.

There are thousands of businesses and startups, who require Websites or Web apps, made with javascript. Just try to go to tech job board – you will find much more javascript or even php jobs, than Python ones.

#1. Python

Python is the most hyped programming language right now. Because, it’s easy to learn. Most of schools in United States start to teach programming with Python now. Yes, Google and Youtube are made with Python.

But, there are some pitfalls. It’s much harder to find a Python job, than Javascript one.

A lot of Python jobs may require some kind of Masters or PhD degree, or degree in Data Science. Or it can be a job in a big corporation with complex interview process, etc.
