Methodology
Remote software engineering job postings published in the period, collected from employer career sites, LinkedIn and remote job boards and de-duplicated by listing URL; only titles naming an engineering role count, never sales or marketing. A posting counts for a technology when its title names it or its description names it at least twice. Shares are of all postings in the period; one posting can count for several technologies.
