Best new upcoming language?

[Ramse]

Hi all.

What do you think - what new language is the next big think?
What's cooking at the moment that has potential to develop into something awesome?

I guess we are looking at a global scripting for all platforms, may be like java?

 

[mudbutt]

node.js...though technically its not a "language"

Well, we don't need to limit ourself to languages only. Frameworks count to.

I agree about NodeJS, it's gaining a lot of traction.

 

[bretonel]

NODE JS!!!! (yes, screaming)

I don't know about the next big thing but the concepts/fundamentals (basic syntax, OOP concepts etc) of all programming languages will remain the same for a long time.

I agree about that.

Obviously you never coded in LISP Just joking, I totally agree with you.

Can you share some LISP experience with us?

The newest language will probably be updated old languages, php 9 , c++ 13, .net 5.5 and so on.

Coding with my mind and dont use fu cking syntax would be awesome.

Best of luck if you find something like that.

node.js is definitely getting traction but fundamental concepts will remain the same.

node.js is not language But what we can see javascript nowdays has new life

I agree with you. node.js probably contributed a lot to JavaScript having a new life, as you say

 

[mantic0re]

I suppose the language does not really matter. Whatever language you use, it shares the same concept as dozens of other languages. Once in a while a new framework comes along that's the new flavour of the month but that's it.

And what about python guys? I find python particularly user-friendly

Has anybody any feelings towards GO etc, have never used it, just curious about brighter minds than mines opinion.

P.s. I like the direction JavaScript is taking.

 

[duriangray]

javascript for sure.
Use it for the full stack. server and client end.
MEAN stack!
node.js
meteor.js

 

[kahuna74]

For better or worse... Javascript. Nodejs, and languages that compile down to javascript like Elm and Clojurescript. For systems languages keep an eye on Go and Rust. For big data, clojure is the one to watch.

swift is very good program langguage. learn this lang.
