I am old. I am still not over JavaScript existing outside of a browser. I'm not sure I ever will be. And that's from someone who uses a Linux DE that uses JavaScript and XML as part of its GUI.

    I'm still mad about JavaScript existing at all.

    If you have an evening (or all weekend), and really want to blow your mind, look up Low Byte Productions on YouTube and look up their JavaScript videos.

    I'm in my mid thirties and didn't know this was a thing until now.

    Even if you don't count desktop applications like VSCode or Discord or whatever that are written in primarily JavaScript due to those arguably just being packed inside their own little browser engine that they ship with, still yes.

    Node.js is an extremely widely used JavaScript runtime environment that people are using to write server back ends and command line utilities and god knows what else in JavaScript.
