I'm not familiar with node.js, but don't most JavaScript libraries already run in both the browser (including Electron) and node.js?

Is it a matter of significantly different system APIs and standard libraries, and this offers a bridge for applications expecting to run in Node, providing that environment in the JavaScript context of a browser? (Or does it actually run Node in WASM?)
