3RD LEVEL LANGUAGES

Object Oriented or Procedural, 3rd Level Programming Languages have their own strengths.

Weaknesses arise due to a lack of resources wanting to develop in such languages. However, there are still many lines of codes, compiled into business critical applications running today.

With improvement network connectivity, and onset of IoT, many such applications are modernized to take advantage of the new technology, but the core code is still an asset to software application vendors who own them.

NEW BREED LANGUAGES

Noticeably, Java EE and Microsoft ASP.NET are the 2 matured languages, with newer ones, such as Ruby, Python, NodeJS, & PHP.

Angular & Ionic Cross-Platform mobile development framework is also getting popular.

Robotic Process Automation, Enterprise Automatic Schedulers, and Test Automation often involves their own scripting languages.

LOW-CODE PLATFORMS

Low-Code platforms, enable quick development and deployment time. It provides ‘drag-and-drop’ UI prototype or ‘design-as-you-build’ to capture all kinds of toolsets to populate a web/mobile interface.

Navigation around application pages are also simplified.

Together with business process capture, design and management, low-code teams enable the business user to have the business applications up and running in weeks, rather than months/years.
