Swift is on the top 10 Programming Language Rankings

Swift

Since 2011, RedMonk counts the most popular programming languages every quarter. According to the latest statistics, Swift has become the fastest growing programming language, and for the first time in the top 10, it is tied with Objective-C. RedMonk stated that Swift was able to achieve such results in 4 years and it was shocking.

In general, a completely new programming language is very difficult to get into the top 25, let alone the top 10. RedMonk’s ratings are governed by GitHub and Stack Overflow, which is a combination of code and discussion together which programming languages are more popular. The following are the most popular 20 programming languages.
