Kotlin, Swift, and Ruby losing popularity


Kotlin, Swift, and Ruby have dropped from their top 20 positions in the language popularity index and seem to be in decline, according to Tiobe.

Published April 7, the latest release of the Tiobe Programming Community index shows all three languages falling from last month. Since Python has become the lingua franca of the programming world, there is not much room left for Ruby, he added. The Tiobe index gauges programming language popularity by assessing the number of skilled engineers worldwide, courses, and third-party vendors pertinent to a language, using websites such as Google, Wikipedia, Bing, Amazon, and more than 20 others to calculate the ratings.
