Regardless
of
the buzz, JavaScript manages only a 10th place showing in index,
while C holds top place
JavaScript,
while possibly the language with the most buzz these days, however
continues to score comparatively low in the index of popular
programming languages. But the popular Web development language
crawled back into the top 10 in the index.
Ranked
10th, JavaScript turns up in just 1.64 % of Internet searches used to
compile. It is still a bit of a miracle why this universal
language is not yet part of the top 5. JavaScript
is the glue of client-side Web page programming now
a days. But JavaScript is presently booming its application domain.
Node.js
has made JavaScript a server-side programming language
and the amount of JavaScript-based games (mostly browser-based) is
increasing.
I
can't find any credible reason for the relatively low score of
JavaScript. JavaScript is never or barely ever used as a standalone
language. It is always the supporter language of a system that is
programmed in something else. For example - server-side Java or PHP
and client-side a bit of JavaScript.
Still, JavaScript bears threats such as being regarded as a language in which it is simple to make mistakes. This is why Google has highly-developed Dart, presently hierarchic 80th in terms of popularity and a possible JavaScript successor. In the meantime, other languages, such as CoffeeScript and TypeScript, were designed to create JavaScript code instead of writing it manually.

Competitor PyPL Popularity of Programming Language Index, which examines how frequently tutorials are searched in Google, JavaScript Position sixth, with an 8.2 % share. Ahead of JavaScript in the PyPL index were Java (26.9 %), PHP (14.3 %), C# (10.4 %), Python (10.2 %) and C++ (9.4 %). The C language leaded first place turning up in 17.809 % of searches, followed by Java (16.656 %), Objective-C (10.356 %), C++ (8.819 %), PHP (5.987 %), C# (5.783 %), Visual Basic (4.348 %), Python (4.183 %), and Perl (2.273 %).
