How to choose a Coding Language

Choosing a coding language doesn't have to be difficult - there are so many great options out there! Depending on what you're trying to do, there's likely a language that will fit your needs. To start, take into account your experience level and the type of application you're building, as well as the platforms you're targeting.

If you're just starting out, Python or JavaScript are great beginner languages with lots of features and libraries to help you get going. To create web applications, you'll need HTML (for structuring content), CSS (for styling) and JavaScript (for interactivity). And for mobile applications, you'll want Java (for Android), Swift (for iOS) or JavaScript (for both).

Python is a popular, versatile and easy to learn language. It's used for data science, web development, software engineering and artificial intelligence, and is supported by robust libraries and frameworks. Plus, there's an open-source community of developers who are always willing to offer helpful support and resources.

When picking a language, make sure to consider the libraries and frameworks available - they can make your job a lot easier and save you a lot of time.

At the end of the day, the best language for you is the one that best fits your application and experience level. Explore your options and evaluate carefully before making your decision!

I wish I read this article when I've began to code.
I am juste sad that you do not mention ruby. Which is a really cool language I think!
Kotlin can be a really cool alternative to Java also :D
