The index TIOBE of January 2015 was released , and it points to the JavaScript language as being the most popular for 2014 . After a long wait, therefore, JavaScript is the language of the year.

JavaScript dated for a long time, but so far its performance, at least in the TIOBE index was poor. In many ways, this index necessarily reflect the image that people and developers had the language, but since its rise, it now seems destined to conquer the world.
The reason why it is the language of the Year TIOBE is not because he is leading the ranking, but because it has changed significantly more than any other language in the last twelve months . It has a strong growth of 1.7% over the year. Other languages that have also experienced strong high in the year are none other than PL / SLQ (1.38%) and surprisingly, given all the talk about its recent decline, Perl (1.33%).
The great mystery when you look at the overall performance of JavaScript is why it declined in 2010. Note that the JavaScript language has failed to return to his popularity before 2010, even today.
In terms of ranking, the C language is still on the top step of the podium, followed closely by Java. Then you have to make a big jump to reach the rest of languages, among which include the Objective-C, C ++ and C #. At the sixth, PHP is still higher than JavaScript, which comes in seventh place, leaving his ninth start of the year 2014. Rounding out the top 10 include in the list Python, Perl and PL / SQL.
After that, the world is going crazy with MATLAB, ABAP, COBOL and Assembly (Assembler). Ruby, another language known to be in decline, going in 15th place - to 12 at the beginning of 2014.
Here is the complete picture:
Of course, if you put the C and C ++ together, then Java, leaving only crumbs for the others.
The coming year should see some turbulence that the Cupertino giant has introduced Swift will disrupt the market by reducing the use of Objective C. In fact, Swift aims to create iOS apps, OSX (Cocoa and Console).
And before you start to rebel, yes TIOBE is a very crude tool that does not measure much about the use of the programming language or popularity, but it has the merit to exist for a long time, and indicates the changes over the year.
