Xojo Moving up the ranks!

At the end the result is: no Xojo if you ask me. There is no reason. All languages are more in use. And for the ones in the last list you at least get Jobs. Not really for Xojo programmers. May be a few in USA. But I didn’t found one.

Most used ones are automatically the ones programmers are wanted. Simple.

And even with multiple customized queries none of those lists included Xojo
:thinking:

Xojo has a problem: no market relevance. That’s it. And that’s also the fundamental reason why they can’t come up: not enough money.

It would be helpful to request it to order them by popularity. Oh and specifically tell it not to hallucinate. That’s unfortunately very important.

It’s interesting to see that Vala is on this list whereas Xojo is not. I switched from Xojo to Vala a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back since.

I’ve been considering Vala for quite some time. Havent had the time to actually dive in tho. :grimacing:

I’m using Vala for desktop applications across Linux, macOS and Windows and also the backend for web applications (the front end is HTML, CSS and JavaScript). My intention was to blog about it earlier this year but unfortunately projects have delayed that - I will be blogging about it soon!

It is available from the App Store Vala, but not for my country or region (France)…

I don’t think is the same Vala.

Yes, it seems to be a “Comprehensive management platform for businesses and organisations” called Vala from a developer in Vietnam according to the App Store listing.

interesting take, this morning:

no HTML is not a language, it’s not close to turing completeness… sigh

Bash, Rust and C on decline? Well, not in this universe…

Yes they think it is so while their horizon is out of scope. Believing that it is so is not changing the world. SQL is also not a real programming language. But okay. But hey. Most important: c is dead more or less.

SQL is an important skill, but used in conjunction with a controlling Language, like Swift, Java, Python etc.

PL/SQL (Oracle) would be the closest to “just SQL” that I can think of

Yes Sir. The entire point is: SQL has nothing to do with a programming language. It is a helper language which never will be really compiled and it not really interpreted. It is an implemented language for Databases.

People often writing SQL and HTML when speaking about programming languages.

What’s the sqlcommabd for hello world ?

SELECT ‘Hello World’ AS OUTPUT
