Intro

Sometimes, developers and content creators use too many personal stories to make big claims. This creates an echo chamber online, making you believe things that might not be true.

Here’s what the real world looks like for most developers:

• Most developers don’t work for big tech.
• You’re more likely to fix old code than build new features.
• Even the best developers fail interviews.
• Your next interview probably won’t include a whiteboard.
• JavaScript is the most popular language, even if some say "real developers" don't use it.

To get a true picture of the developer world, check out Stack Overflow’s yearly survey.
 It shows what’s really happening with 90,000 developers sharing their experiences.
 
Listen in to learn what you should know to stay ahead in 2024.
