- 1. Most Useful programming languages for app development in 2022
- 2. Which language is best for app development in 2022? Software developers today have countless options when it comes to programming languages. They can code their apps on native platforms. They may choose to focus on languages used for hybrid or cross-platform development. Developers who want to code for iOS choose Swift. Developers who want to code for Android use Kotlin. And those who want to build cross-platform apps can use Java or React, among many other options. Software developers typically have three main ways to create an application. They can choose to code a native app, a hybrid app, or a progressive web app. Developers create native apps that work on one specific platform, usually either iOS or Android. They build these apps using Swift or Objective C for iOS. For Android, they use C++, Kotlin, or several other languages. Developers create hybrid applications using languages such as JavaScript. Hybrid development starts with creating a common backend and then skinning the app for iOS and Android.
- 3. 1. JavaScript According to Statista, JavaScript holds the #1 spot for app developers. 59% of developers report using JavaScript in the past twelve months. Many developers choose JavaScript because of its power in cross-platform development. JavaScript comes in many varieties. It is the basis of many frameworks and libraries. Developers use JavaScript for many purposes. They often use JavaScript to build Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). Pros with JavaScript ● Fast ● Versatile and flexible ● Easy to use Cons of JavaScript ● Browser support varies ● Vulnerable to malicious use ● Scripting is unpredictable at times
- 4. 2. Python Software developers use Python to create web and desktop applications. They also use Python for several other purposes, including network server administration. Python has many fans thanks to Python library support, easy integration, and interactive controls. Many start-ups choose Python. Python works best for creating hybrid and cross-platform applications. Pros of Python ● Quick, easy to learn ● It supports many operating systems ● Many frameworks available Cons of Python ● Not great with tasks that require a lot of memory ● Slow execution ● Data access issues
- 5. 3. Swift Software developers use Swift to build iOS apps. Swift is open source. Developers love Swift because of Swift's flexibility and scalability. Apple released Swift as a language in 2014 and made it available for mobile app development a year later. Going forward, Apple has indicated that Swift is the preferred language for coding iOS apps. Swift Pro ● Works on Cocoa and Cocoa Touch platforms ● Easy scalability ● Concise syntax ● Fast ● Less buggy than Objective C Swift cons ● Relatively new and untested compared to Objective C ● Requires frequent updates
- 6. 4. Java Software developers use Java as a server-side language and for building Android applications. Java is an object-oriented language. Java has many open-source libraries. Many developers also use Java to create cross-platform and PWAs. Many developers consider Java as the language for Android development. Sun Microsystems originally developed Java in 1995, Oracle currently owns Java. Java uses a bytecode that the Java Virtual Machine interprets at runtime. Java Pros ● The code is reusable and transferable ● Works on a variety of devices ● Flexible and versatile Java Cons ● Java Virtual Machine has some bugs ● The class and library syntax have writing problems ● Complex to implement
- 7. 5. Kotlin In 2017, Google announced that it would support Kotlin for Android app development. Kotlin is open-source and uses Java bytecode, libraries, and a virtual machine. You can think of Kotlin as an enhanced version of Java. Kotlin works a bit slower than Java, but Kotlin has native support. Many Android IDEs also work with Kotlin. Kotlin Pros ● Clear and concise language ● Enables functional programming ● The large user community, good support Kotlin Cons ● Relatively new ● Slower than Java ● Limited learning resources
- 8. 6. Dart Google created Dart in 2011 as an open-source and object-oriented programming language. Software developers use Dart for both client-side and server-side programming. Dart uses C-style syntax. Developers use Dart to build native and cross-platform applications. Dart Pros ● Simple to learn ● The code works for both web and mobile apps ● The large user community, good support Dart Cons ● Requires registration of sub and generic domain packages ● Not strong on the backend/server side
- 9. 7. SQL Software developers use SQL (Structured Query Language) to manage relational databases. SQL became a common programming language for relational databases as early as the 1970s. SQL manages and performs many operations on relational databases. SQL meets both ANSI and ISO standards. Many business users choose SQL for this very reason. SQL works to build all kinds of apps, from native to PWAs. SQL Pros ● Powerful and popular ● Handles a large number of transactions in a single query ● Fast data loading ● Data is highly available and consistent Cons of SQL ● Complex and difficult to add code ● Inflexible ● It only changes vertically ● It is difficult to convert data from objects to tables
- 10. 8. Ruby on Rails Ruby works in the backend as an object-oriented scripting language. Developers use Ruby to build web applications, manage servers, and create standard libraries. Ruby has evolved over the years to serve many purposes. Ruby directly executes instructions instead of compiling to machine language. Developers use Ruby to build all kinds of apps, especially cross-platform apps. Ruby Pros ● Supports dynamic input ● Easy to maintain ● Intuitive syntax ● Simple to learn Ruby Cons ● Slower than other popular languages ● It is not flexible ● Updates and bug fixes are released slowly
