Why Python remains, and will stay, on top This switch will eventually allow TIOBE to include websites it was unable to crawl before, like Stackoverflfow and Github, which could have a larger impact on scores. Jansen noted that not every website has been onboarded, but that the switch to Similarweb included a switch to using HtmlUnit, a non-GUI web browser with APIs that let Java apps invoke pages, fill forms and do other standard web browsing activity. TIOBE decided to make the switch this month after Amazon’s announcement in December 2021 that it was shutting the Alexa web ranking service down, effective May 1, 2022, ending 25 years of the program. The only striking difference is that the top 3 languages, Python, C, and Java, all gained more than 1 percent in the rankings,” Jansen said.
“We have used Similarweb for the first time this month to select search engines and fortunately, there are no big changes in the index due to this swap.
TIOBE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE LIST FULL
The TIOBE index may not be full of surprises this month, but Jansen did have a lot to say about the index itself this month, as this is the first time it has been compiled using Similarweb’s traffic analysis platform instead of Alexa. However, Kotlin is taking over that position right now, so I think Groovy will have a hard time,” Jensen said. “Groovy could have grown further because it was the major script-based alternative for Java running on the same JVM. Now, with platforms that don’t require Groovy, like GitHub, Azure DevOps and GitLab, Groovy is losing its place at the table. Groovy was the only language used for writing scripts on Jenkins, which Jansen describes as having been “the only real player in the CI/CD domain” early on. TIOBE CEO Paul Jansen attributes Groovy’s decline to the growth in the CI/CD space. Over the course of the year, Groovy fell from 12th position all the way to 20th, putting it perilously close to the “other programming languages” list. 2022 was with the Groovy programming language, an object-oriented language for Java.

Python continues to sit atop the index, with C and Java directly behind it. The February TIOBE Index of the most popular programming languages is out, and while the work going on in the background of TIOBE’s calculations has changed, not much has shifted in the way of rankings.
