Lol, server side JavaScript far predates nodejs.
Do you mean Rhino? This is the first time I come across it and the fact that it’s written in Java completes a full circle of hell
Ha, yeah that’s one I remember using. I believe there were other implementations of interpreting javascript on the server. LiveWire, maybe? It’s been so long since I even attempted it, honestly. I will say, nodejs is clearly far superior to them all, especially with how lean a nodejs service runs on the server.

If done correctly. Electron is slow as crap in most cases. It can be optimized but it usually isn’t.
I know that Electron≠JavaScript, of course but JavaScript continous being used for stuff it shouldn’t be used for

Cries in Polkit
Out of curiosity, which language would you prefer Polkit policies be written in?
Hasn’t this been the case for a looong time?
So PHP but “script”?
I often jokingly push for 2 technologies at work. The first is Oracle Linux 9 and the second is Electron.
I get these vibes when WASM introduced C# to the frontend via Blazor.
Feels wrong. Feels like it shouldn’t be possible.
But binaries on the frontend are so. cot. dayum. fast
Blazor has been my favourite framework to do my side projects in for the past couple years now.
Everyone wants to removed about JavaScript. How about using languages like Python and Java to create websites? You have to use an entire bloated framework and compilation just to be able to use a language that was never intended to be used for websites. Java web frameworks are atrocious.
Maybe for Java but Python does have Flask, which is anything but bloated.
Django, from what I heard, may be a bit bloated, but, from what I heard at least, it has some very useful tools
