Скачать или смотреть Top 5 Programming Languages: A Non-Technical Guide to the Basics

We have all been in situations where we listened to software engineers and didn’t understand what they were talking about. In this video, I will explain what a programming language is, the 5 most popular ones (JavaScript, Python, Java, C#, C/C++), and I will give you some questions to understand technology choices in your project better.

Questions you can ask to understand the technology choices in your project better:
Does the problem define the programming language?
How popular is the language? How long does it exist?
Does the language align with our company's technology stack?
How quickly could we hire and/or onboard people to the project?
What are examples of other companies using this technology successfully on similar projects?
