What Programming Language to Learn in 2025 and WHY

Picking your next language should hinge on your end goal: JavaScript/TypeScript still reign supreme for web apps, Python is unbeatable for data and automation, and C#/.NET remains a solid enterprise play. From there, choose Go for scalable microservices or Java for heavyweight backends; mobile devs should eye Kotlin or Swift, while PHP powers tons of legacy and web projects.

If you’re into cutting-edge performance and safety, Rust is where it’s at, and no matter what you build, mastering SQL is non-negotiable. Bonus: Tim’s DevLaunch mentorship digs deeper, helping you move past tutorials and actually land that dream job.
