Wow, this is supercool!

Most people, as you probably know, don't like JS as a language 'cause they
think of it as a "web-browser language with lots of bad side-effects", but
that's 'cause they don't know the language, really. JS actually has some nice
programming concepts and being able to use it as an SP seems pretty
attractive. Keep up the good work!
