Top 5 programming languages for mobile application developers

 These five programming languages are useful for each mobile application developer. With them, you can create reliable, secure and popular applications.

Java

Since the advent of Java, it has become the main language for developing mobile applications on Android. It provides cross-platform support. In addition, Java applications are easy to migrate to different operating systems. Java applications work on the principle of "Written Once Run Anywhere" (WORA) - they will work the same on any Java-compatible device without the need to change the code. Although Java is a relatively old programming language, it remains popular.

Kotlin

Kotlin is the latest programming language fully compatible with Java. These two languages are interchangeable. Last year, Google called Kotlin "the main language for developing Android applications." Among the advantages compared to Java is Kotlin scalability.

Swift

Swift is a programming language developed by Apple as a modern replacement for Objective-C, which was previously used to create applications on iOS. Initially, Swift was intended for development on iOS, but now it can be used to develop applications for macOS, Windows and Linux. Unofficial tools for adding Android support are also available.

Rust

Rust is a relatively new language that has already become known for  memory and security management capabilities. Like Java, Rust has cross-platform support and can be used to develop mobile applications on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux and for a number of varieties of Unix. Rust is suitable for the development of native and web applications, as well as operating systems, browser components and game engines.

HTML5

HTML5 is also on this list, although it is not a language for developing mobile applications - it is used to create web applications that run on any device through a browser. Applications written in HTML5 can be combined with frameworks that allow you to use APIs and, while preserving all the functions of a web application.

The Slowest Programming Languages

Today, there are about 700 well-known programming languages ​ ​ in the world, while only 250 are used. If a task could be measured in days earlier, it is now a fraction of a second. Here are some of the slowest dynamic typing programming languages. In electronics, speed and performance depend on the number of transistors that a particular chip can have. According to Moore's law, their number doubles every two years. This is why a modern hand-sized mobile phone is much faster than a room-sized supercomputer of the 90s. When it comes to computer science, the difference between faster code and a faster PC is quite bike. Intel and AMD create powerful computing systems in terms of speed. The task of programmers is to write reliable and fast programs. One of the things to consider when creating software is programming languages . Each of them is implemented in different ways, therefore it has its own merits. And speed may simply not be among them. If you need to create a program for comp...

How to succeed in IT if you are not a programmer

There is a statement that only mathematicians are taken in IT. Is that so? Today's world of information technology answers: no. Successful in this area is not the one who quickly thinks in his mind, but rather the one who understands human psychology, knows languages and is quite ambitious. What is the secret to success and how to develop in IT if you are not a programmer? Develop communication skills and emotional intelligence Language, successful communication, the ability to "see and hear" the interlocutor are basic factors for those who want to succeed in IT. Linguistic inclinations are known to be more important for learning programming languages ​ ​ and understanding code than mathematics. That is, languages ​ ​ are a factor that allows ordinary people to develop in IT. The ability to find a common language and establish the necessary connections, easily communicate, the ability to feel and understand a colleague, subordinate, partner and client is something that is...
