It’s also not a scripting language.

It definitely is a scripting language.

hello-world.js:

#!/usr/bin/env node

console.log("Hello world");

Your favorite command line tool:

chmod +x ./hello-world.js
./hello-world.js

You just need to install npm, eg via apt-get install npm.

everything is a scripting language if you try hard enough.
