The list of Top 20 Web Technologies in Boston has been updated for February. This list is based on keyword searches in job postings at Indeed.com. The most in-demand keywords are listed more frequently than less in-demand keywords. This list reflects the change in the last 30 days.
This month's report focuses on The Second Ten, those technical skills which are in demand and directly below the Top 10.
