People do a lot more in JavaScript than you realize.


That's what I'm wondering about. When was the last time you blew the stack with JS and what did you try to accomplish?

Another commenter said they had problems walking a dependency graph.


For some examples: People have 3D game engines running in JavaScript. There's a lot of cryptographic work in JavaScript, including but not limited to cryptocurrencies - a lot of groundbreaking stuff from a technological perspective. Full blown emulators, developer tools, virtual machines... the world of JavaScript is way larger than CRUD applications.
