On [https://julialang.org/](https://julialang.org/) it’s always Julia.

The language is called Julia (with the capital)  
The particular executable which implements the langauge ( the one that has code hosted at [https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia)) is called julia (with the lower-case).

Right now julia is the only implementation of Julia.  
But we can imagine in the future other implmentations like idk IronJulia for .Net, could also exist.
