My comment was supposed to be a bit of a joke...
Generally speaking, you cannot read a file from disk using JS in the browser because the sandbox doesn't allow the code access to your disk. If you googled something like "read a file JS" it probably made an assumption that you're using Server side like nodejs or deno. The only exception for in-browser that I know of is to upload files using an input tag.
that looks like a go template, so i’d wager it’s something server-side
Maybe, I've never used go templates before.
