There were over 5000 responses, 5350 to be exact, and I can’t wait to share the details. Before that I want to thank everyone who chipped in. This is a great time to be a part of the JavaScript community, and I’m truly excited for things to come!
截止目前有超过了 5000 人参与了(该次调查)，准确的说是 5350 人。我迫不及待的想要和大家分享一下这次调查的细节。在分享之前我想要感谢参与调查的每一个人。这是 Javascript 社区一个伟大的时刻，我对未来的事情感到无比激动。
I didn’t anticipate such high interest, and next time I’ll make some improvements to the format. Namely, I’ll put the survey up on GitHub first so that the community can collaborate on the questions and options for a couple of weeks before launching the survey. That way, I’ll be able to produce more accurate results and avoid complaints like “I am shocked you didn’t include Emacs!”.
我没有想到大家如此积极，下一次我一定会对版式做一些改进。换句话说，就是我会先将问卷调查放到 Github 上，以便于在开始调查之前，社区有一到两周的时间来收集改进问题和选项。这样，我就可以得到更精确的结果，也可以避免出现诸如 “我很震惊你竟然没有包含 Emacs” 这样的抱怨。
Now, onto the survey results. I’ll remain impartial in delivering the results, so that you can come to your own unbiased conclusions.
现在，基于调查结果。我将保持中立的态度发表一下调查结果，这样你就可以得出自己的公正的结论。

A whooping 97.4% of respondents write JavaScript for a web browser, while 37% of them write mobile web applications. Over 3000 of them – with 56.6% – also write server-side JavaScript. Among those who took the poll, 5.5% use JavaScript in some sort of embedded environment, such as Tessel or a Raspberry Pi.

不出所料地，有 94.9% 的参与者在工作中使用 Javascript，但是，统计中也有很大一部分(占总票数的 82.3%) 参与者也在其他项目中使用。其他的回复则包括了教学，好玩，和非盈利目的的使用。
How long have you been writing JavaScript?
你写 Javascript 多长时间了？
Over 33% of the surveyed have been writing JavaScript code for over six years. Out of those who answered the poll, 5.2% started at most a year ago, 12.4% two years ago, and 15.1% three years ago. That makes it 32.7% people who started writing JavaScript in recent years, out of 5350 voters.

What libraries do you use?
你使用过哪些库？
In retrospect, this was one of the questions which would’ve benefitted a lot from collaborative editing. jQuery is still going strong, with over 50% of votes casted its way. Lodash and underscore are used by a significant portion of the JavaScript population that participated in the voting, while the xhr micro library only clocked in 8% of the votes.
现在回顾起来，这是一个受益于协同编辑的问题之一。jQuery 获得了超过 50% 的选票证明了它的势头依然很强劲。在参与投票的 JavaScript 使用者中，Lodash 与 Underscore 也被很大一部分开发者使用。 xhr 微型库只获得了 8% 的票数。

这有太多的语言可供选择，我肯定会漏掉一些。但是结果不言自明。
Thanks!
