I've heard of Pythonistas and Rustaceans. What are some of the other names given to devs writing in, for example, PHP or C++. Appreciate any answers - both serious and joking.

Nothing for JavaScript?

Javascripters, maybe?

Or perhaps JSters (pronounced Jesters)*

*Meant as a turn of phrase and not a criticism of the language.

Don't worry. They'll change it again next week.

Alternatively we could pronounce it Joestars.
