It’s also not a scripting language.
It definitely is a scripting language.
hello-world.js:
#!/usr/bin/env node
console.log("Hello world");
Your favorite command line tool:
chmod +x ./hello-world.js
./hello-world.js
You just need to install npm, eg via apt-get install npm.

Damn this is hard. I keep java script disabled by default so its hard to say anything good. I begrudgingly have to whitelist websites i need that cant run without it.
I feel like that's more because you don't want websites you visit running code than because you dislike this particular programming language
