Adding a New Tool to Your Developer Tool Belt

Renowned psychologist and philosopher, Abraham Maslow, said,

“When the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.”

Katie Bouwkamp of the Course Report recently discussed this in more practical terms for the modern-day developer:

“Technology is emerging at an unprecedented pace, with new coding languages created every year to keep up with this rapid innovation. Believe it or not, there are currently more than 500 programming languages, and that number continues to rise! … So, here’s the million dollar question: Can someone really become a successful developer only knowing a single programming language?” 

Katie then goes on to share four reasons why knowing more than one programming language is important:

1. More tools to get the job done
2. Pick and choose the jobs you love
3. Increase your salary potential
4. Don’t get left behind: Become a more versatile developer

While there may be certain jobs available for just one development language, most companies and jobs do require knowledge of multiple programming languages. So whether you already know several languages or are just now deciding to start your learning, having multiple tools in your tool belt will ultimately make you a more valuable developer.
