Good idea, at the company I work at we discussed using Scala as our primary
language because technically it is slightly stronger than python but ultimately
chose python in the end as it??s easier for other devs to be on boarded to our
platform and future hiring for the team etc would be easier

Hi all,
I would like to propose that we show Python code examples first in the Spark
documentation where we have multiple programming language examples.
An example is on the Quick Start page:
https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/quick-start.html
I propose this change because Python has become more popular than the other
languages supported in Apache Spark. There are a lot more users of Spark
in Python than Scala today and Python attracts a broader set of new users.
For Python usage data,
see https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/ and https://insights.stackoverflow.com/trends?tags=r%2Cscala%2Cpython%2Cjava.
Also, this change aligns with Python already being the first tab on our home
page:
https://spark.apache.org/
Anyone who wants to use another language can still just click on the other tabs.
I created a draft PR for the Spark SQL, DataFrames and Datasets Guide page as a
first step:
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/40087
I would appreciate it if you could share your thoughts on this proposal.
Thanks a lot,
Allan Folting
