No fear!
A future programmer will not have to learn to write lines of code with all programming languages, it will be enough to know the most popular ones in the computer sector .
He learn to program on his own, then he chose to deepen the study of this much request digital competence with start2impact courses.
After completing the course to become a Full Stack Developer, he obtain our certification and turned his passion into a job.
He sent his application to the various startups that collaborate with start2impact and was hire as a Full Stack Developer.
We ask Mattia which are the best programming languages to start programming and the most request ones to find work.
Before starting with the list, Mattia want to make a premise for all aspiring programmers looking for the programming language to start with:
“Depending on your goal and the development environment, the language to start with changes.
There are very simple languages but they require further steps to be configure. ”
Within the blog post, the programming languages have been sort according to the different developer figures who use them, from those for beginners to those for finding work .
Let’s start right away, here are the most request programming languages to work in digital.
Front End Programming
The Front End developer takes care of the visible part of a website.
It builds everything we interact with when we browse a web page, think for example of buttons and drop-down menus.
To create all these elements, the Front End Developer must know the HTML language , which we do not include in this list because it is a mark-up language and not a programming language.
HTML is use to build the skeleton of web pages and is very simple to use.
The programming languages CSS and JavaScript are use to give shape, color and create “special effects”.
CSS
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets .
With the CSS language we communicate to the browser how the web page should be read.
It defines the font, the colors, the background image and the positioning of the elements (columns, buttons, …) within the document that constitutes the web page.
The programming language CSS is simple to “read” and “write”, it assigns to each element of the web page an attribute such as color, font, size and position.
JavaScript + TypeScript
JavaScript is the indispensable programming language for the Front End Developer .
Its simple and intuitive syntax makes it a much more manageable and easy to use language than other languages.
This very simplicity could prove to be a double-edge sword due to the disorder and ambiguity that could be create in the code. Beware of variables that don’t have a fixe type and object-oriente programming is limit.
The object-oriented programming is the most common programming model and used the last ten years. It is base on the fact that there is a series of objects that interact with each other, each maintaining its own state and data.
The solution to the limitations of JavaScript is call TypeScript .
It is a super-set of JavaScript that adds new features that can solve the limitations of object-orient programming.
Adding TypeScript language to your project allows you to have more precise and consistent code, and also incentivizes you to become a careful and advance programmer.
Back End programming
If the Front End developer builds the visible part of a website, the Back End developer takes care of making the hidden part work , the one that allows the exchange of data between the user and the server.
The role of the Back End Developer is essential for the functioning of software and websites.
PHP
PHP was design to program web servers , which are necessary to put the user in communication with a database
With this programming language you can start building web applications that interact with a database and return information in a few lines.
When you have begun to gain experience with this language you will be able to use it in an advance way with object-orient programming and other paradigms (eg services, repositories and dependency injection).
Even this language can make us fall into the trap of ambiguity , but in this case instead of installing a super-set we just need to use the language itself in many different ways.
Most popular programming languages
Java
Not to be confuse with JavaScript.
Java is an object orient language. It is a multi-platform tool among the most popular in the IT field , useful for the development of desktop, mobile and web Development applications.
Java
You will be able to create complex structures in a short time and learn essential concepts for web programming.
C #
C # is an object-orient programming language use for development in the mobile, scientific, gaming and much more.
It is very similar to Java , in fact starting to program with C # or with Java is practically the same thing but with a few small differences.
The most obvious difference is the greater support through frameworks (e.g. ASP.NET ), libraries, packages, tools and pre configurations.
Ruby
Ruby is a modern language built with the goal of being very easy to understand .
Mattia gave us an example by saying that Ruby’s syntax is so simple that you could read a few lines of code and be able to understand what the algorithm should do, even without knowing the basics of this language.
However, being one of the first languages to have a syntax other than that of the C language (one of the best known and most powerful) it presents a very unique language construction.
For this reason, getting start with Ruby by getting use to its simple syntax will make it slightly more difficult for you to learn the others on this list.
The Our advice is to learn at least one other more classical language, such as those name above, along with this.
Go
Like Ruby, Go is a modern and easy to understand programming language .
The advantage of Go over Ruby is the ability to manage the execution of multiple processes at the same time.
Also in this case it is recommend to study this language together with another more classical one.
Python
One of the most popular languages in computing, Python is also easy to understand and one of the best to start programming with.
Compared to others on this list, Python is very useful for data analysis, machine learning and other aspects of artificial intelligence .
