" summary

Argues that one language can run from tiny devices to the cloud and shows a working demo using JerryScript (~170 kB) and IoT.js on a VM to mimic a temperature sensor sending HTTP GETs every second to a Node-RED flow on a laptop/Raspberry Pi. The Node-RED flow parses payload.temp, routes <80/80–90/>90, sets a fan boolean, and returns an HTTP response; the simulated device receives commands and the fan state changes, proving end-to-end JavaScript feasibility.
