Was Facebook made with the following programming languages?

Was Facebook made up with HTML, CSS, HTML5, CSS3, PHP, JavaScript?

I think there has to be server-side code written in, probably, C or possibly JAVA. HTML and CSS and HTML5 aren't even programming languages at all, just markup languages and javascript is not normally used for robust applications, just interactions on a web page.

It's a heavily augmented PHP. There's also a good bit of C++, Erlang, Python and D in there as well.

Same with Instagram?

I don't think java is used in Facebook or Instagram.

It seems like mainly php (or similar) platforms.
