The following repository provides a list of the most popular languages among all Github repositories: https://github.com/oprogramador/github-languages#all . I will resolve this market by running the script on this repository on the 31st of December 2023 on the set of all Github repositories.

For the purpose of this market, JavaScript extensions and dialects such as JSX, TypeScript, or CoffeeScript are considered JavaScript-like languages.

EDIT: Since I made this into a multiple choice rather than a free response question, I will resolve this to N/A if a language not on this list turns out to be the most popular.

@JesperCockx Can you please resolve your market.

@SirCryptomind Sorry for the delay, it's resolved now.

Selling since this is a FR market where the resolution will be known by the time the market closes. This means late bids will dilute the shares of any early holders

I bought 10 of Java (starting with a big lead) and 4 of Python (gaining quickly)

It seems I messed this us, should've created a free response instead of a multiple choice. Is there any way to fix this/add more options after the fact? I'm new here.

@JesperCockx You could resolve it to N/A if it's a language not shown (extremely unlikely imo)
