Python, JavaScript (and Html/CSS), and shell script. Don't have many days where I don't consistently switch between all of those.
I switch between: Ruby, Lisp, SQL, CSS, Bash, Javascript, HTML, Markdown, and Org Mode.
Ruby's the core of my day job, and I use Lisp to configure my editor to help with all of my writing. Everything else is much more of an as needed.
C#, React, CSS, PowerShell.
Mainly between Ruby, JavaScript and Lua; only rarely a bit of C. Does (ba|z|*)sh count though?
C++ for Unreal, C# for Unity, Javascript for work and side-projects (HTML, CSS, React, Svelte), Java for Android coding, Objective-C/Swift for iOS plugins etc.
These days I'm mostly in on data engineering so I'm flipping between a lot of Python, R, SQL and shell scripting
On the occasional freelance web dev days I'm repeatedly flipping between Python, SQL, JavaScript, HTML, Sass, and shell scripting
Mostly JavaScript or TypeScript and also HTML with some CSS. Less C# and if you accept no-code/low-code "languages", Power Automate Cloud Flows.
5: Javascript, Solidity, Typescript, Java, Ruby
I switch between Python, Lua, and Go.
Currently, I switch between JavaScript, HTML, CSS, go, Node (just a little different from JavaScript), Lua, and Fish shell. I often write utility scripts in Awk, and jq. I use Python, PHP, and Lisp/Scheme to write extensions at various times for programs like fman, Alfred, LaunchBar, etc.
In my career, I have written significant amount of code (over 1,000 lines) in 22 different programming languages. There isn’t a one language for everything, but you have to pick the best tool for each job! That has always been my philosophy.
At work, lots of C# and SQL, with html, css, and typescript mixed in.
Personal site & games: add in Javascript, Java/Kotlin, Lua.
Pretty neat how it doesn't feel difficult to adjust to each one.
Between php, java and javascript.
Commonly: Python, JavaScript.
Less frequently: Bash, CSS, SQL, C#, HTML, Markdown, Wikitext, PHP, Perl
TypeScript, C#, Hyperlambda, SQL, CQL, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, Markdown and Bash. Not all are technically programming languages, but these are the main ones ...
JS/TS (react, node, html/css) <-> ruby (rails)
