    A text file with a script block and nothing else, containing a console log, is all you need. You already have all the boilerplate to run it in any computer. No extra dependencies, no installing anything. Literally just a notes editor app. This is a valid HTML file:

    <script>
    console.log("Hello World")
    </script>

      By that logic we should all program with .bat files

        Bash and bat scripts are really useful for that reason. You’re making a bad generalization from my comment. But the premise from OP seems to be that a language’s value is how hard it is to get started.

      I think you forgot to pollyfill your console.log and now you have some error in some script in some callback
