Haven't tried it yet, but apparently you can write DOS programs in JS. I honestly had a hard time wrapping my head around this when I first heard about it, because "JS interpreter" and "16-bit OS" don't mix in my brain.
As for why JS isn't more popular, Python has been around a hell of a lot longer, and JS has only caught up to other languages in the past few years.

I couldn't stand sharing an office with 3 other people if I heard every bit of noise they made, so it works out.

All I can hear in my office is the air conditioner. I can't even hear my colleagues when they speak to me from the other side of the room.

I, the experienced web dev, would do this in PHP. My reasoning is:
-
It sounds like the big frameworks are completely overkill for this use case. PHP makes it super easy to make applications like these without a framework.
-
PHP runs as a daemon/is integrated into the web server, so there's no application server you have to manage yourself. Single .php file, drop in www directory, it's ready to go.

Reply to comment by twovests in Why is JavaScript only used on websites and webapps? by twovests
Arguably node.js and its standard library is what made JS practical as a general purpose language, and that's only been around for about a decade.
