C# is my top language and my go to language for Unity and .Net Core, C++/Blueprints for Unreal Engine is a close 2nd . These days learning JS and Python is necessary as there are new frameworks and tools popping up left right and centre and JS(Ecmascript 20**) is getting better every year, learning Typescript should be on the list too, Python you can't escape the "New" beginner developer who just sticks with Python and blows that hissing trumpet as if it's the only language in the world, passionate lot these guys! I like Java but prefer C# and use it more because of Unity and .Net Core, I've had a go at well GO and find it ok, reminds me of C and Python had a baby, goroutines are pretty nice though. Swift I've read up on but not built anything yet, maybe a small iOS app in the future. I've read some F# as well as I do like Microsofts Languages, they sure know how to make them. I always wondered if MS would try make a "python" type language since TS for JS and C# for Java/C++, F# for Functional, but see they have IronPython, might have a look into that but doesn't seem to have taken off much? I'm sure MS will pull another language out the bag as they seem to make popular languages even better! Oh well bk to C# 😋
