In 2017 and again in 2018, PreEmptive Solutions surveyed over 15,000 professional developers, asking about their organization’s current and projected use of a broad cross-section of development languages and frameworks.
Evaluating each annual survey result separately and again together offers insights into current practices, assumptions about future trends, and the actual trends that played out between the two survey collection points.
The white paper, Multi-Year Developer Survey Reveals Evolving Practices and Foreshadows Further Change, shows a professional development community striving to reduce the number of languages and frameworks they rely upon while increasing their commitment and investments in the technologies they retain. As this maturation occurs, overall clarity and confidence in their architecture and mission improves.
The ToC offers a glimpse into the specific topics covered.
The conclusion also contains links to a summary of responses to all questions from both the 2017 and 2018 surveys.
