NOT Browserscript then. JS moved beyond the browser almost 3 decades ago (rhino.jar, anyone?) and became mainstream on the server side almost a decade ago.

But it hasn't.. its just a browser running headless on the server.
You’re confused, what you have in mind is Electron. NodeJS et al. use a JS engine, not a browser engine. NodeJS does not have DOM rendering or even parsing for instance.
I'm aware of it is, people are using it wrong. ;)
