I just don't get how JS is any worse as a scripting language.

bla bla bla

node bla.js



It’s not worse, but Python has better batteries out of the box. Toml, csv, real multi-threading (since 3.13), rudimentary gui, much better repl (out of the box and excellent, installable ipython), argparse and a lot more.


Bun has a lot of this built in, plus Bun shell
