Subcategories?

For example, Jupyter Notebooks are markup, but maybe they can also be considered programming.

As mentioned in #359, OpenSCAD defines 3D models via code, the subcategory "modeller" could be created.

Right now I think OpenSCAD falls under "programming" from what I've seen. The current logic is

• Programming: provides instructions for a computer to execute, and typically includes control flow
• Prose: content for a human to read
• Data: self-explanatory I think
• Markup: Defines how something should look (CSS, HTML)
• Query: Instructions for retrieving data

I took a lot of inspiration from linguist for the programming, prose, data, and markup categories. But added the Query category because I felt that SQL and GraphQL didn't fit into the "data" category.

Because OpenSCAD has variables, loops, functions, and maybe other features of programming languages (I just took a quick look), I think it fits well in the "programming" category. I'd need a good argument that it doesn't fit into any of the categories that I listed. E.g. SQL doesn't contain the data itself, unlike JSON or YAML, so I moved it to the new "query" category.
