I'm a full-fledged C++ programmer and have been coding on platforms like Codeforces. Lately, I've been feeling a bit lost about what the future holds for me in C++ programming. Could anyone share their insights on the features of C++ and any open-source projects that might be worth exploring? Apologies for the typo in the title; I meant to say 'future' instead of 'feature.'

It's tough to rely on just one programming language your whole career. While C++ might seem like it has less scope compared to others, being proficient in it makes learning new languages a breeze. I started with C++ as well, and it has helped me pick up other languages pretty quickly. Once you're in the industry, you'll have to adapt to whatever languages your employer uses, so versatility is key here!
What are the most popular languages in the industry right now? I'm considering learning web development; is that a good route?
