Please note, my original comment was simply correcting the notion that JS is popular because it was especially well suited for working on the web. I see projects like Fengari[1] and would _love_ to use something like that but I recognize I can't impose an extra 300kb on end users just because I want to write in a more pleasant language to develop. I accept that JS is what we have, but I won't pretend like JS was the cream that rose to the top. [1]: https://fengari.io/ https://fengari.io/
