It's... unique, in the software dev world, I think. Node.js is not the right tool for this job, but god bless the folks who insist on using it here anyway.

They are simply two very popular development environments so you will get more tools.
JavaScript has this problem because it's actually a somewhat attainable goal.
The main problem is that once you run into a problem not explicitly solved for by whatever Node.js framework that's holding your hand, you're in deep trouble, very quickly, unless you have a more "classical" software development background.
I am experienced in tons of software programming paradigms and languages, but I couldn’t care less about the details if it doesn’t enable me to output something useful.
After all, you don’t care about the details, as long as the language enables you to output something useful, and Brainfuck is Turing complete, so that checks your only box, yeah?
…or maybe using the wrong tools is a terrible idea, and you really ought to care more about the details.
I meant easy to use languages are better than hard to use but “technically better” languages. Brainfuck would be the last language to use for either scenario though.
There are AWS/GCP/Azure APIs where you can fully manage your infra if you'd like via JavaScript. Nobody does this, however, for a reason. Lots of reasons, actually.
That's what this submission is, a way to solve a problem in a much harder (and limiting) way than is necessary, given the other available tools that can be used to solve this problem.
You'd be much better off learning something like Terraform to solve the problems being addressed here. Not everything has to be solved in JavaScript, and that's a uniquely "JavaScript" community solution, given how seemingly attainable it is to newer coders (which a lot of JS programmers are).
