Which Programming Language Is Best for Claude Code?
Claude Opus runs 1.4–2.6× slower and more expensive in statically typed languages (Go, Rust, TypeScript, Java) than dynamic languages (Ruby, Python, JavaScript) for agentic coding tasks, with type checkers adding overhead but no measurable correctness benefit.
