African tech is rising. And so is the number of developers

For years, Javascript has been the world’s most commonly used programming language. It leaves Python and Java behind it. Most importantly, because it’s the language of choice for front-end development. Consequently, many of the 690.000 professional developers on the African continent are proficient in Javascript.

Virtually all the developers in our pool list Javascript as a skill they master. In addition, many of them are specialized in Angular, React or Vue. Please note that we have verified all developers in our pool and tested them for the skills they list as their main area of expertise.
