You should try Deno, they have good Node compatibility

Does it? Last I tried, several years ago, coverage of the Node APIs was not good. I wanted to send data over UDP and a lot of Node basics there were missing.

Deno's node compat is way better now.

They're still missing niche things and they tend to target the things that most devs (and their dependencies) are actually using.

But I can see they have it in their compat stuff now and it looks like it's working in the repl locally: https://docs.deno.com/api/node/dgram/
