If You Want To Code From Home, Learn JavaScript

itwbennett writes "Earlier this month, remote-work cheerleader and Basecamp developer 37signals launched a job board called WeWorkRemotely.com that is, you guessed it, devoted to telecommuting jobs. At present there are only a couple hundred jobs listed on the site, so you'll still have to use other job boards as well. (Dice, SimplyHired, and Craigslist all have filters for finding remote working jobs.) But here's another thing that will help you land a work-from-home gig: Learn JavaScript. ITworld's Phil Johnson looked at a number of job postings for software developers open to people wanting to work remotely and then compared the frequency with which a number of popular programming languages and technologies were mentioned by the postings to determine the top tech skills for telecommuting jobs. Not surprisingly, the ubiquitous JavaScript topped the list, being mentioned in just over 20% of these listings. Other languages and tools used for the web are high up the list as well: jQuery at #3 (12.5%), PHP at #5 (9.5%) in the fifth spot, iOS at #8 (5.6%)." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=If+You+Want+To+Code+From+Home%2C+Learn +JavaScript%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F1bMZVlZ) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdevelopers.slashdot.org% 2Fstory%2F13%2F11%2F24%2F1754214%2Fif-you-want-to-code-from-home-learn-javascript%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3D facebook) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://developers.slashdot.org/story/13/11/24/1754214/if-you-want-to-code-from-home-learn-javascript?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
