JavaScript

Every browser ships with exactly one programming language built in, so anyone who makes web pages interactive writes JavaScript sooner or later; through Node.js it also runs servers and build tools. Its reputation for quirks comes mostly from early design decisions kept for compatibility. Modern JavaScript is a far tidier language than the old tutorials still circulating suggest.
