I'm most comfortable with...
<ul>
	<li><a href="https://rust-lang.org/">Rust</a> - my preferred language, and my default for new CLI/TUI	projects</li>
	<li><a href="https://python.org">Python</a> - my go-to scripting/glue language</li>
	<li><a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp">C#</a> - my usual pick for GUI projects</li>
</ul>

I'm fairly capable with...
<ul>
	<li><a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript">JavaScript</a></li>
	<li><a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML">HTML</a>/<a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS">CSS</a></li>
	<li><a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html">Bash</a></li>
</ul>

I'm currently learning...
<ul>
	<li><a href="https://isocpp.org">C++</a> - while I much prefer Rust, C++ has a far larger established base, and
		learning either it or C (preferably both) is near-essential for systems programming, particularly when working
		with Linux internals</li>
	<li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)">C</a> - a very useful language for both
		working with established codebases and for writing software for small, low-power devices, such as in the context
		of embedded hardware.</li>
	<li><a href="https://kotlinlang.org">Kotlin</a> - my personal favourite of the various JVM languages. Java is
		widespread in many industries, and Kotlin provides near-seamless Java interop. Knowing at least one JVM
		language should be very helpful for integrating with existing established codebases.</li>
		<li><a href="https://ziglang.org">Zig</a> - Zig's alluring promise of a better C captured my attention, and I quite
		enjoy its <tt>comptime</tt> paradigm, ease of configuring allocators, and philosophy around error handling.</li>
</ul>
