the annual report octoverse of 2021 of GitHub was recently published. The report released the most used programming languages by the developer community in Brazil and worldwide. THE GitHub is a platform software collaboration where developers can share code and contribute to the work of other users.
In addition, there are also very interesting data for the programming market (and for those who want to continue in the area). Although the South American market only contributed 6% of the total number of programmers worldwide, compared to North America and Asia which together had 60% of software developers contributing code, this region was the one that grew the most compared to the previous year. Brazil is one of The world’s fastest growing software developer communities, with an annual growth of 40% in the total number of users.
The most used programming languages in Brazil:
1 – Javascript
JavaScript is a universal, cross-platform programming language and has remained the most popular language worldwide for the past seven years. The universality of JavaScript makes it especially popular for applications machine learning and artificial intelligence. It also allows for fast development time by providing an interactive loop for easy debugging in a solid development framework.
2 – CSS Sass
A CSS extension language, the Syntactically Awesome Style Sheets (SASS), in free translation “style sheets with an incredible syntax”, has gained popularity since its creation in 2006. SASS aims to make the development process simpler and more efficient, keeping the same logic as CSS (selectors, rules, etc. ), but in a more organized, intuitive way and with easily reusable code snippets.
3 – Blade
The third most popular language in Brazil is blade, known for increasing productivity, coding speed, and code readability. It is a language that emphasizes the algorithm, so it has a very small but powerful syntax set. Because it is simple, fast and dynamic, it allows you to develop complex applications quickly.
4 – HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL)
THE HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) is uniquely configurable, designed to be used with HashiCorp tools. Today, the HCL has expanded and is already classified as a toolkit for creating structured programming languages. While intended to be useful for general purposes, and in creating languages that are both human- and machine-friendly, for use with command-line tools, it is primarily aimed at development tools and servers.
5 – Elixir
THE Elixir appeared in 2014 and is a brazilian programming language which has been adopted by more and more developers around the world. It is an open source language that runs on the Erlang Virtual Machine (Erlang VM), whose main objective is to offer productive programming for distributed applications that are safe and easy to maintain, enhancing the resources of the virtual machine on which it is based without performance costs.
