hmm, let's see.

It's not java.

It's also not a scripting language.

also to the repeat grammar nazi in the comments here, hi, "its"

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.

Damn this is hard. I keep java script disabled by default so its hard to say anything good. I begrudgingly have to whitelist websites i need that cant run without it.

I feel like that's more because you don't want websites you visit running code than because you dislike this particular programming language
