What Programming Language to Learn in 2025 and WHY

Most developers pick languages without a clear goal, so this video breaks down the top picks for 2025—tying each one to real-world use cases and who they’re best suited for. You’ll get a quick rundown on JavaScript/TypeScript for front-end and Node work, Python for data and automation, C#/.NET for enterprise apps, Go for microservices, Java for legacy systems, Kotlin/Swift for mobile, plus PHP, Rust, and SQL.

Beyond language choices, Tim also shares his pet peeves as a dev, offers hands-on mentorship through DevLaunch, and even hooks you up with a free month of managed WordPress hosting if you use his Kinsta link.
