No major surprises at the top of the rankings this month, with React
taking the top spot in the August "Ask HN: Who is Hiring" thread,
its third straight win. Not content with its win though, React also got
a big bump and jumped over the 20% mark, with nearly 23% of all
postings mentioning it. Rounding out the top 5, Python and JavaScript
continue to be entrenched in the second and third place spots with
AWS and "Full Stack" swapping fourth and fifth place this month.

For the second month in a row, React is the top technology in the
Hacker News Who is Hiring
thread. While this demonstrates how strong React's hold on the
industry is right now, how long can a JavaScript framework remain on
top though? History has not been kind to JS frameworks, so my guess is
that React will start dropping down by the end of year. With Vue.js
coming in as the top riser, it's clear the competition is coming.

Python remains undefeated in 2017, just edging out React. The margin of
victory was just 2 posts, 184 - 182 and React was winning as of last
week. Perhaps June will bring a new champion.

Python is holding off React as of today with 143 mentions to React's 141 in the April edition of Hacker News Hiring Trends. Even with Python's consistent dominance over the years, React, the relative newcomer is reaching new heights still, with nearly 20% of posting reach this month. But, watch out React fans, it's not all upside for React. Vue.js makes an entrace on list of the fastest rising technologies.
