Most? I'd say far from most. I see just as many articles about Go, Scala, Clojure, etc. as I do Javascript.

Yes, but usually in the context of web development as these are common server side languages for web apps.

pjmpl just meant we don't see a lot of game developer content on here, which is largely a C++ dominated area (with Lua game scripting becoming a lot more common).

> Go, Scala, Clojure

All of them languages which are mostly used for web.

How much of those are for native applications? The realm where Lua tends to be used most.
