What Programming Language to Learn in 2025 and WHY

Tim argues that picking the “right” language comes down to your personal goals—whether it’s building web apps, diving into data science, or scoring that dream job. He breaks down the top contenders for 2025, from JavaScript/TypeScript for front-end and full-stack work, to Python for data and automation, C#/.NET for enterprise, Go for performance, Java for backend, mobile-friendly Kotlin and Swift, classic PHP, cutting-edge Rust, and can’t-forget SQL for databases.

Along the way he shares what bugs him about dev habits, gives real-world context, and plugs his DevLaunch mentorship program if you want hands-on project guidance and job prep. No fluff—just actionable advice to level up your coding journey in the year ahead.
