Ruby on Rails: exploring the wave

    Let's start, of course, with the most eloquent schedule. It means only one thing: information about "Ruby on Rails" has become less often sought. You should not be surprised at this - any technology goes through such a period, the surge has already passed and with some certainty we can say that the peak has already been reached.

    Now let's take a look at another graph that shows the number of requests for “Java, PHP, Ruby” over the past 30 days. The kinks in the Java & PHP charts show that most often these requests appear on weekdays. Ruby in this case can be attributed to the language of freelancers or people who live them 7 days a week, without distinguishing between weekdays and weekends.

    Ruby & Rails appeared on the market in 2004, so the absolute and relative graphs are similar. To make any conclusions on this schedule, we will resort to the help of Dice.com. At the request of “Ruby”, almost 800 vacancies are issued there, at the request of “Ruby on Rails” - more than 300 are available. And most interestingly, in both cases, Ruby & Rails cease to appear in the names after the first two hundred, and after the third only in 5-10% of cases are the main requirement. Speaking of grouping by state. If you do not live in NY or California - the chances of finding a job with "Ruby on Rails" on Dice will be zero.
