Node.js runs on V8, so if you add the DOM and HTML... you have, essentially a browser.

That doesn't really buy you anything distributed over a native UI + IO framework.

You could use the DOM based text editor (I think the VS code one is called Monaco ?) to build a cloud IDE (I've seen a few instances of this) but VS code has nothing specifically suitable for this over standard IDEs.
