One of the two compilers discussed in the article is Turbofan because the code in question is being invoked from JavaScript, so I'm not sure how you think JavaScript isn't relevant. We live in an age where not everything, including cryptography, needs to traverse C or C++ to reach machine code (see: Java, Go, etc).
Plenty of JavaScript and WASM exists for cryptography purposes, for what it's worth, because Node isn't the only runtime and "native" code isn't easily portable.
