  10. GIT
  11. Visual Studio Code
  12. Jira Work Management


1. JavaScript:


JavaScript is still the most popular programming language in 2022, according to the Stack Overflow Developers Survey.

JavaScript is a programming language used by web browsers to create dynamic and interactive experiences for the user.

It is a lightweight, interpreter-based programming language. It is designed for creating network-centric applications.

4. Node JS:


Node JS is still the most popular Web Framework (Backend Development) in 2022 as per the Stack Overflow Developers Survey.

Previously, JavaScript only worked in the client browser. Today, JavaScript enhances backend development as well.

JavaScript is currently popular among developers for full-stack development.



5. TensorFlow:


TensorFlow is the most popular machine learning software library as per the Stack Overflow Developers Survey.

TensorFlow is a free and open-source software library for machine learning and artificial intelligence.

It can be used across a range of tasks but has a particular focus on the training and inference of deep neural networks. 

It can be used in a wide variety of programming languages, including Python, JavaScript, C++, and Java.

This flexibility lends itself to a range of applications in many different sectors.



6. Zoom & Microsoft Teams:


Zoom & Microsoft Teams are the most popular Synchronous PM tools (Synchronous PM tools are live chat, Web Conferencing, live streaming, and online whiteboarding) as per the Stack Overflow Developers Survey.

Based on the Stack Overflow Developers Survey, Rust & PostgreSQL are the most popular and wanted programming languages and databases.

The Rust programming language helps you write faster, more reliable software. High-level ergonomics and low-level control are often at odds in programming language design; Rust challenges that conflict.

While PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database system that uses and extends the SQL language combined with many features that store and scale the most complicated data workloads.



9. The most paid technologies for languages, databases, frameworks, platforms, etc., include Closure, Erlang, F#, DynamoDB, Couchbase, Cassandra, Colocation, AWS, Phoenix, Ruby on Rails, Apache Spark, and Kafka.
