I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer. I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century. These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I have sentimental feelings for a couple of languages.
C feels "like home" in that it was the first language I really started making actual things in. Even though I'd have to look up practically everything if I tried to write something nowadays.
But honestly, it's going to be Tandy Color BASIC which is the first thing I wrote anything in after my ZX81 days.
It was a weirdly nice and friendly interface, and I sometimes read old computer listings for the nostalgias. Feels like visiting my childhood.

I think 🤔 my first crush was Javascript😘. And now, we are married to each other💏. So, I feel more than at home with it even though it gives me a tough time😥. Apart from that, I feel at home with JavaScript. 🙂

I'm Calin Baenen – AKA KattyTheEnby – a programmer born October 30th, 2006. I love programming, it has been my passion since I was a kid, and will forever be my passion.
Frontend Developer ❤️🔥 | Just learning, practicing, coding and letting a little bit of it spread out forever and ever ➿ Be brave enough to be bad at something new!
It’s JS for me. It's the one language I don’t know much of but one I know a lot more than most of. And I can get it going and get things done with and I guess it’s the language I use as a comparison as I am now learning python php and other frame works which are like new languages to me. That’s how it’s like a home language.
As a matter of fact if I had a choice I wouldn’t learn all these other languages. But industrial circumstances I guess insist that I do. But I love JS.
Hello! I'm Rasheed, a .NET enthusiast who's constantly looking for new things to learn and forget, that's why I started writing in the first place, but I love writing tho :-)
C# is the one to go for me, I've experimented with TypeScript and Python, but C# was always the go to after a few days, it really feels like home, and been enjoying it since day 0 🙏
It was the first language in which I built a functional piece of code that I was proud of. And the first language that I ever found a sense of community with.
C feels like home because I started serious programming with it and continue to use it to this day. However, I also enjoy C# because it always seems to feel "familiar" when I work with it.
I started with Pascal, then did C++, Java, C, PHP, Python, Kotlin, JavaScript and Scala respectively. Python has the most logical structure IMO, although the OO structure could be more polished.

Zx81😱😗 you like a founding father ? Awesome stuff!
Hopefully everyone gets a chance at being old :)
yes. I'm honoured. I will be blessed to get as much wisdom out of you as I possibly can.

Happy Coding🤓
I've started from C++ many years ago, worked with Java but now it's definitely Python and maybe a bit of Go in some cases
Ruby clicked for me, and I'm still going strong.
JavaScript feels so much like home for me.
Rust
I started my career with PHP. And every time i work with it , it feels like home
F#. For me, the question is "Why not F#?", rather than "What language should I use?"
Of course, there might be times where F# isn't the most suitable/right language, but it's certainly my default choice.
My very first true love was Python <3
Absolutely Angular, I had my first experience with it just 3 years ago and since then I'm only more sure that it's my language to follow my life!
With Angular I feel able and comfortable to create any application 🥹
JavaScript for sure!

Absolutely Javascript! :)
I think in Python.
Ruby.

JavaScript
Definitely Python!
PHP for me

C++ is what I will recommend to every new coder
