📈 Monthly Analysis

The TIOBE ranking from November 2025 once again confirms Python's dominance, which remains clearly in first place, with an impressive share of 23.37%. This is a steady advance, showing how deeply Python has integrated into academic environments, AI, and data analysis.

📌 C makes a spectacular return to second place, climbing two positions, while C++ and Java lose ground, both dropping by over 1%. This indicates an industry shift towards simpler or more efficient languages in specific contexts.

💡 C# marks one of the biggest gains of the month: +2.67%. With .NET 9 and Blazor becoming increasingly popular, the Microsoft ecosystem is becoming a more frequent choice for modern, web, or cross-platform applications.

In the “classic” language area, notable are:

  • Perl, which makes a huge leap from 27th to 9th place (+1.16%), an unexpected comeback probably linked to growing interest in scripting and DevOps tools.

  • Delphi/Object Pascal rises again, maintaining its position in the top 10.

  • Visual Basic remains surprisingly stable, indicating that many enterprise applications still actively use it.
