I was expressing myself sloppily, sorry. You still can use many things in the JVM ecosystem because you can compile (most of) scala.js not only to Javascript but also to the JVM, and then analyse the code with JVM specific tools like fuzzers, debuggers, profilers etc. This is powerful. Making sure your code runs on two platform will expose additional problems that one platform alone doesn't do.

I see. Well, I suppose that's true of OCaml as well. Its ecosystem is smaller, but it does have some pretty powerful tools, including a time-traveling debugger.
