Ada reaches 1% on the PYPL index
We really need to add more tutorials and such. learn.adacore.com is great, but we need more explanations of how to work in the language and ecosystem, especially for application programmers.
Needs more up arrows
What is the main reason for Ada’s growing popularity this year?
Reached critical mass ? …
Programmers usuably don’t choose (only) a language, but an ecosystem. If I wan’t to program the computation of a filter response and the drawing a bode plot, I guess I whould choose Python because of the matplotlib (even if Ada would be nice with its included complex computation). It is also a strength of Java : many things available out of the box (GUI binding, Web, etc).
I guess Alire will have an important value for many programmers which are considering Ada to develop something. Unfortunately, not every libraries can be easily installed with Alire.
