Javascript is a programming language with a peculiar twist. Its event driven model means that nothing blocks and everything runs concurrently. This is not to be confused with the same type of concurrency as running in parallel on multiple cores. Javascript is single threaded so each program runs on a single core yet every line of code executes without waiting for anything to return. This sounds weird but it's true. If you want to have any type of sequential ordering you can use events, callbacks, or as of late promises.

One word: task automation. It's basically zero effort and you can use the ./task.js package manager to handle any repetitive tasks. You can use ./task.js
to automate everything with minimum effort.
./task.js
provides the structure, order, and authority that you as a developer so desperately crave.
./task.js
will also take responsibility for your actions if you need it to. It's what everybody is using now.
./task.js
is the new hotness. It's all about ./task.js
now, just like that.
This is compared to npm run/bash scripts, which are:
