HTML
HTML is the backbone of the interwebs. Nowadays people don't write just HTML, but combine it with CSS and JavaScript, with some backend written in languages such as PHP. Some languages like Java contain interfaces for interacting with HTML (such as in org.w3c.dom.html). HTML is not a programming language (as it is not Turing complete), but just a markup language for writing websites with. It was formerly managed by W3C but it is now by WHATWG.
