This thematic series comprises a set of invited papers, each one describing the use of a single language for the development of cheminformatics software that implement algorithms and analyses and aims to cover a variety of language paradigms. The issue will be rolling, such that as papers on new languages are submitted they will be automatically added to this issue.

The first article DOI is by Kevin Theisen (of ChemDoodle fame) reviewing HTML5/Javascript. Apparently there have been more lines of Javascript written than all other programming languages combined so it seems appropriate as a kick off article.
