Good question, I can only answer that for the German/Austrian market.<p>I wrote a few Selenium scripts that would gather jobs from ~20 jobboards/freelancer sites.<p>Then I compared them, distilled the technology and also the amount they were willing to pay.<p>I'll spare you the details, but the clear winners were Java and C#.<p>On the Java side of things, it's Spring MVC ( Spring boot catching up )<p>For the frontend, Germans and Austrians tend to trust Angular.<p>So I picked Spring and Angular.
So far I'm more than pleased with the customers storming in.<p>I'd suggest you do the same for your region, I'm also convinced that your result might look totally different, depending on your country and region.<p>I also did a few isolated tests, for some parts of Austria and the results surprised me a lot, for example, C# was the clear winner with over 60% market share in some areas.<p>What I'm trying to tell you: This question is rather biased, just because you see 10 purple buses in the morning, that does not mean that suddenly the bus company changed its colors, it's maybe just a coincidence that someone just painted 10 buses purple, the only 10 purple buses in your town/city.
