What a boring website...

It fails to differentiate between JavaScript engines, a core language implementation, and runtimes, an engine plus the useful parts needed for writing software (os, event loop etc.).

It lists engines like boa, duktape or Hermes as if they are the same thing as Node, Deno or Bun, but at the same time doesn't even mention SpiderMonkey, V8 or JavaScriptCore, as if realizing they are not actually in the same class.

I guess the snark wouldn't work as well if a chunk of the list gets eliminated by thinking about it.
