Wholeheartedly agree. And my personal opinion is that this unification is going to come from Java/Truffle. Trufflejs and Truffleruby are high performance engines implemented in top of JVM JIT. already trufflejs claims reasonable compatibility with nodejs. It would be amazing to have a single runtime running a Ruby backend and a react front-end.
