August Highlights

While React won again, its 27th month in a row, TypeScript looks like August's top story, as it cracks the Top 10 for the first time. TypeScript reached the Top 20 last September and continued to climb over the past twelve months. TypeScript appears to have gotten swept up in React's ecosystem as developers use TypeScript to create React apps. TypeScript is even the 3rd most popular programming language overall now, jumping over the Go Programming Languge.

Kuberetes is another climber, reaching #12, and matching its all time best performance. It's now neck and neck with Docker as those two continue to feed off each other to grow the containerized application industry.
