6 hot skills you must learn this semester

There is no good time for learning; one learns every day. Ask any startup founder, and you will almost always hear “I’m still learning. It never stopped”. Even then, new year and the beginning of a new semester brings along that irrefutable feeling of wanting to do something new. And, when it comes to the ever-evolving world of technology, there is so much one could learn that at times it may feel scary and overwhelming.

But worry you not, we have you covered. Here are the six specific skills which are really hot these days and that you could learn this summer – without having to step out of your home.

1. C/C++: If all the programmers had to form their separate nation tomorrow, C/C++ would indisputably be their national language! It is recognized worldwide and used in a multitude of applications. Even after all this time, C++ hasn’t lost its importance as it’s still the most credible arrow in a programmer’s quiver, especially when it comes to high performance embedded and real-time systems. It’s used in finance (banking and trading), GUI based applications, medical equipment, and of course, games.

You can specialize to be a front-end or back-end developer, or even a full-stack developer, depending on your interests and the projects you work on.
