Developers, what languages are you using?

VentureBeat published Zend's survey about what developers are up to in 2012. Among other results: a breakdown of popular languages. Am curious to see what sort of languages those in the Focus community use regularly.

Lauren,

The VentureBeat article is a great read! I'm not a developer (although I play one on TV...:)), but here are the languages that my company primarily uses:

Ruby, Ruby on Rails
Java
Javascript

In general, we use the tool or technology that can deliver the best results rather than having the technology define the solution we can provide for a client. This means needing to have a large toolkit with which developers are familiar, but ultimately I think it's positive.

I would think PHP would be the common one but would find .net and java used more in corporate environments. I found this article quite interesting with a good infographic.
