There has been a thread to discuss the Stack Overflow Developer Survey on this forum every year since 2018, so here’s yet another one for 2025 . This year, our ecosystem is once again well represented with Elixir, Erlang, Gleam, and Phoenix available as technology options!
The survey is said to remain open for just a few weeks.
I have to say I think this is probably the main reason that anyone would visit Stack Overflow these days. Well that and following some search results. AI is killing Stack Overflow and that’s a bit of a pity.
Should call it the “Stack Overflow AI Survey” instead of the Developer Survey. There were only about half a dozen questions about specific programming languages and tools Next year I’ll get an LLM to fill it out.
