Poll: What language do you use primarily?

#1

Post by code » Mon, Mar 21, 2011, 2:36 PM UTC

I'm curious as to what everyone here uses as their primary web language. There were some older polls that somewhat address this but I figure this would be more accurate and up-to-date. I've listed the main ones but left an option for other in case someone else uses something else primarily.

EDIT: I just added the options that were on the other one since people were adding other languages in the comment area.

Web language? I'm not sure what you mean by that.

Pretty sure they mean server side language.

The main 3? You're actually missing ASP .NET which is quite popular (in fact, isn't it 2nd place in popularity to server side languages?) .. Please add this, otherwise you'll be getting A LOT of 'Other' votes

... and anyway, who cares? It's not like these polls have _any_ validity.

I voted Python. I've used it with many frameworks (which one is the right one depends very much on what you're trying to do). Also some PHP in a very dark past. I like Python because it is so versatile, due to the large number of available packages and bindings you can pretty easily write your front-end, back-end, admin scripts, all in Python (even the client code if you use Pyamas, but haven't tried that myself yet).
