Treehouse Frontend/Backend

What programming languages are used to make Treehouse?

I noticed in the job section it says Python and Django but those two are not even thought at this school. Ruby, PHP, and Javascript are all the over place but no python.

We primarily use Ruby on Rails. There are a lot of other technologies as well, but that's one of the primary ones.

My guess is that they are probably looking into teaching those two languages. Which would be awesome.
