Pick Kotlin/JS if…
It suits web developers who want to write frontends in Kotlin or share business logic with JavaScript or TypeScript codebases. It also fits developers targeting Node.js applications.

It suits learners, teachers, and developers who want to experiment with TypeScript or JavaScript in a browser without setting up a project. Its single-document focus is useful for examples and small experiments rather than general-purpose Node projects.
