    What Languages Should Every Programmer Know?

    July 17, 2020 /

    It’s easy to get lost in the sea of programming languages. On top of that, there are some languages (I’m looking at you, JavaScript) that have a vast ecosystem of frameworks. Wikipedia has an exhaustive list of programming languages with several for each letter of the alphabet. I won’t count them, but there are at least 260 at a glance. There’s no way you can learn all of them. So, what languages should every programmer know? Where to Start? If you want to know where to start, you can take a few approaches. Of course, this depends on what you want to do in your programming career. If you want…

I think everyone should learn HTML, and here’s why… You Can Get a Job Using HTML A quick search on a job board like Indeed.com returns about 30,000 jobs using HTML.
