I couldn't resist chiming in here: we're doing this at Neomind Labs. We don't act as steward for front-end frameworks yet, but we're considering supporting React (I saw that you're a front-end developer).

“[I]n many ways nonsense is a more effective organizing tool than the truth. Anyone can believe in the truth. To believe in nonsense is an unforgeable demonstration of loyalty. It serves as a political uniform. And if you have a uniform, you have an army.” -- Curtis Yarvin

Thanks for making me feel like slightly less of an insensitive clod for my choice of words.

Thank you, this is great feedback.

I love this, thank you

Thanks for this perspective. I believe it takes developers at all levels to maintain a piece of software. A developer of 10 years experience may not get professional fulfillment out of form validation changes, but a bootcamp grad shouldn't run the SOC2 audit.

I love this, thank you

Anyone know why they gave a whole section to "Web" and omitted Ruby? Even C and Visual Basic are present.

They were jealous of how easy to use and beautiful Ruby is.

As another commenter pointed out, their numbers don’t line up well with other broad surveys like State of JS or Stack Overflow, so I would say it reflects a low-quality survey.

Because these are agencies. They're often called in to maintain legacy systems, which don't get to use shiny new tech. Hence low or missing numbers for things like Ruby or React, despite their prevalence otherwise.

Sadly, that would actually point the other direction. Ruby was red-hot circa 2010, and while it’s still widely used, it’s not the new shiny thing anymore. I would expect to see more “legacy maintenance” Ruby work than brand-new ruby work these days.

I only have anecdata but all that I have of it points to agencies being heavy Ruby/Rails users and React as well.

Both of them work well since they impose a structure and programming model that basically works for a lot of business software, so you can focus on the domain problems and move quickly over the standard tasks like an asset pipeline or account management.

Ruby is definitely not new and shiny. There are plenty of long-lived Ruby on Rails projects that need to be maintained.

Makes sense not seeing React, though. It is far more complicated and fragile to get SEO-friendly pages rendered with React (and there aren't many legacy systems that use it, either).

Because Ruby is dead, Netcraft confirmed it. /s
