Yes, JavaScript has been among the most popular programming languages for a decade, sharing first places in various ratings with Python or C#. Most applications are responsible for the programming layer (whereas HTML is used for structuring the content, and CSS is for implementing visual ideas and know-how).

Even for the most common and popular programming languages, we can’t say that every new programmer will choose them for studying and writing code that eventually brings money and bread to the family. The situation with JS is complicated: although it’s tremendously popular, there are a lot of other programming languages that are way easier to learn, more attractive, or handier for some particular fields of application.

Nevertheless, JavaScript is fast and lightweight, so it’s very easy to create prototype apps without backend development. JS has become an essential skill for any professional web engineer, not just those specializing in front-end.

The rise of Node.js and React.js, frameworks allowing the creation of server-side apps, has given a strong impetus to the growing popularity of JavaScript.

JavaScript is ubiquitous — the whole coding world and his wife have been using it for designing interactive and dynamic elements cajoling users into a delightful experience. Small wonder it’s so popular.

One can’t deny that JavaScript has become second to none in the programming world. However, our core question in this section is what companies are currently in need of developers who are proficient in JavaScript and connected frameworks. Which of them crave JS coders for existence and development?

The first and the most renowned is probably Microsoft. OK, it doesn’t use JS to power your Windows — but the Edge browser you’ve gotten free of charge with the new Windows laptop is certainly JS-dependent. All browsers need to process and execute JavaScript efficiently, so Microsoft has developed and maintains its own JavaScript engine for Edge. There has been a lot of talking about them creating an alternate version of NodeJS with the Edge engine.

PayPal has also been employing JavaScript on the front end of its website for quite a long time, but that’s only the beginning. The online payment titan was one of the earliest adopters of NodeJS. Overhauling the account overview page, they used Node.js for their front page. The updated version worked out so well that they chose to employ it in production and continue building Node-based components.

Netflix started out using Java for almost everything. They, too, were stuck on the problems with Java’s extended time required for the development. Times changed, and Netflix moved away from its more traditional structure into the cloud and started to introduce NodeJS. This framework enabled breaking down the infrastructure into separate customer services and speeding up the servers.

Groupon used to be dangerously slow because Ruby on Rails powered them. Later, they voted for a change to NodeJS and rebuilt the service into several individual Node apps.
